Juniors – About
ABOUT THE CLUB JUNIOR SECTION
Please follow instructions and requests by the coach or person running the event.
Derby Triathlon Club holds training sessions in and around the city of Derby and we have a strong junior membership with training sessions supported by fully qualified and DBS checked coaches. The club aims to provide children from 8-16 years of age with safe, friendly and fun training sessions based around the three disciplines of triathlon including transition practice. As a club we encourage children of all ability levels into the world of triathlon for the benefits of physical exercise in a fun and social environment-it’s up to each individual member if they choose to take part in any races.
DTC is accredited by British Triathlon and meets all requirements for the Bronze ‘TriMark’ standard.
Junior Training – Please check the ClubSpark Sign-ups for details of training sessions.

Parent Responsibility
A parental agreement form will have to be completed by parents/guardians prior their children taking part. A register will be taken each week of those attending and it is expected that parents/guardians will leave and collect their children at the stated time. Children will remain with the coach until a child is collected.
