Why become a member of the Hawaii Youth Triathlon Club?
Kids like to be involved with other kids doing the same thing. Beyond the social aspect, clubs provide kids with structured training opportunities. Improvements can be made in individual training sessions, but a group setting works best with young athletes who want to maximize training.

This is the perfect sport to be involved with because it challenges young athletes to cross train in three disciplines, swim-bike-run. It involves the parents as support and training partners, and creates a positive atmosphere of both mental and physical health.  If a parent has little or no background in triathlon, they can learn through the club's training sessions and social gatherings on how to better assist their child.  They can also learn about potential overuse injuries that occur if a child does too much too soon. The club coach and parent advisory committee can talk to the parents about certain aspects of training.
