Derby Triathlon Academy Training Day 6th October

Published:

The Derbyshire Triathlon Academy (DTA) was set up after identifying the need to provide triathlon training for youngsters (11- 16 years) in the north part of the East Midlands. The DTA is a supplement to the East Midlands Regional Academy which already caters for a number of talented athletes across the region.

We are now in our 4th year and now we are based at Derby University, Kedleston Road. Derby. This is a fantastic venue to train from for cycling and running and we access Nuffield Health Club in Derby for pool swimming and Lavender Patch at Hilton for open water swimming. We meet roughly once a month and the cost for the day is £20.

If your club has any youngsters who show potential and think they could benefit from training with DTA then please get in touch with me to have a chat and we can invite them to attend a taster session.

Also, if there are any coaches within your club who would like to get involved with coaching talented youngsters and pursuing their CPD in this arena this is an excellent opportunity.
