Why Tri Camp?

The focus of the camp is to have fun while learning about triathlons in a safe & controlled environment. The kids will be taught swimming skills, bike handling skills and running skills all at our own facility or the park across the street. We will not be riding on the road for this camp. Each day the campers will have an opportunity to learn something new about the sport and we play many games and have activities to keep it fresh and fun.

Coach Kathy

Head coach Kathy Goody will be running the camp this summer. Kathy is a certified USAT Coaching II coach and has 10+ years experience in kid fitness and triathlon training programs. Contact Kathy with questions by email: kgoody@huntersville.org or by phone: 704-766-2240.

Note to Parents Please have your child rested and well fed and hydrated when coming to camp. We have busy days and they will have the most fun and get more out of the camp if they are fresh and ready.

We are excited to introduce your child to the great sport of triathlon-get ready for fun!
