Triathlon
Student Club
Triathlon is an inclusive and welcoming club, providing high-quality training for complete beginners up to elite triathletes. As a member of the club you can expect a wide range of training sessions, from spin sessions and transition practice to open water swimming. As a club we attend lots of different events throughout the year, so if you’re training for your first parkrun or half ironman, we can help get you there.
Aside from training and competitions we also organise various social events throughout the year, we host our annual aquathlon and post aquathlon club night, quiz nights, sober socials, pub rides, and of course, sports nights.
Can’t wait to see you at training.
Performance Squad
For those intent on dedicating large amounts of energy to their sporting abilities, there is an opportunity to apply for the performance squad at the start of each term. The squad gives the team’s top athletes access to more tailored coaching advice, as well as a squad-only weekly strength and conditioning session.
