SLH TRI CLUB

The Triathlon Section of South London Harriers

JUNIORS Welcome to the Junior section of the SLH Tri Club. This section of SLH Tri is focussed on anyone aged between 8 and 16 which cover the range of events from tristart up to youth racing. Our club is happy to help anyone who is just starting out in multi-sport events to those keener and more experienced athletes looking for a club to race with. In 2010 we will be focussing on the South East Region competitions although there will be racing opportunities wherever we can get them across the South East of England and in London. With the New Year arriving it will be time to start looking at the racing calendar and selecting your events for the coming season. Ullrich Cox will be organising the junior section so anyone interested in racing or training with us should contact him at ullrich.cox@btinternet.com. Junior Triathlon Swimming Schedule 2010 Please note that all sessions will be at Caterham School between 8:15 pm and 9:15 pm. We are limited to one lane and the sessions are geared to juniors. 8 to 16 year olds, if you swim with a swimming club and compete in galas then please contact me to see what we are doing at each session. The sessions are geared to swimming skills for triathlon and to help swimmers not in a swimming club develop a ‘great’ freestyle stroke. Adults, if you consider yourself to be a weak swimmer and would like some guidance on improvements please e-mail ullrich.cox@btinternet.com to see if one of our sessions is suitable for you. At most sessions there will be video taken to help me identify and re-evaluate your stroke. If you wish to have copies of the videos please contact me and I will e-mail them to you. Note : all videos will be for the development of the athlete and none will be published or distributed by me or anyone else associated with me without the express permission of the athlete.
