Border Triathletes Junior Triathlon
16 Sep 2018

Welcome To The Sign-Up Page For The Galashiels Junior Triathlon
The Galashiels Junior Triathlon is organised by the Borders Triathletes Club with support from Durty Events and Live Borders. As well as regulars to triathlon this is an ideal event for newcomers to the sport as the bike and run are held on off road paths not suitable for road bikes. All competitors have the opportunity to come along to coached training sessions prior to the event ensuring everyone is ideally prepared as possible for race day. All in all a great environment for juniors taking part in Triathlon.
When: Sunday 16th September 2018.
Where: Galashiels Swimming Pool, Galashiels, Scottish Borders.
Time: Registration is from 12.00-12.45 with the race starting at 13.30
The swim/bike/run distances and fees are determined by the age of the competitor. The age group the competitor belongs to is determined by the age of the competitor as at the end of December 2018. This mirrors Triathlon Scotland age group rules.
For example on 16th September (race day), the competitor is 12, if the competitor turns 13 by the end of the year this competitor belongs to the 13-14 age group.

Additional Junior Triathlon Coached Training Sessions
New to Triathlon? Interested in learning or topping up your swim / bike / run/ /transition skills?

These 1 hour coached training sessions will be held at Galashiels Pool at 6pm on the following dates:-
Tuesday 28th August
Tuesday 4th September
Tuesday 11th September
For the purposes of insurance all non-members attending the training will be required to join the club, this is a one off charge of £6, you can do this by clicking here or you can make payment in cash when you turn up for the 1st day of training. Membership to the Tri club will ensure you get updates on future events and are eligible for any further training. Each junior will also have to pay standard pool entry fee for each swim session, payable at the swimming pool desk.
There is no need to sign up for these training sessions, it is possible to just turn up on the day. However if you are definitely coming along then it would be useful for the club to know in advance so if you could email Katrona Methven, Borders Triathletes Junior Development Officer using email address then that would be helpful.
