Bayside Triathlon Club
Junior Program

At Bayside Triathlon Club, we want to help the next generation experience the fun and achievement from multisport.

Triathlon ABC's

AGILITY

Agility: is about being able to alter body position quickly and efficiently, in a wide range of situations. This component is especially important getting in and out of the water, during transition phases and when changing direction.

BALANCE

Balance: all of the elements that make up triathlon require some form of balance with cycling being the most obvious.

1. Static Balancing (standing still)
2. Dynamic Balancing (on the move)

COORDINATION

Coordination: is the ability to control different parts of the body to deliver smooth and efficient actions. A well-coordinated triathlete will ensure all actions are well timed, effective and efficient.
