The sport of triathlon has experienced explosive growth since its official beginnings in 1982. Initially this growth was adult-driven as mature athletes discovered the joys of multi-sport. Recently however, there has been a dramatic rise in youth participation. Youth-only triathlons, camps, and clinics have popped up all over to introduce youth to triathlon, develop and hone their skills, and offer them opportunities to race safely. We, in the Pacific Northwest Region (PNWR) are now doing our part as well! To service our youth, a group of like-minded Boise businesses have joined forces with USA Triathlon (the governing body of triathlon) to offer Youth and Junior triathlon clinics, camps, and races!
Clinics and Camps
With our clinics and camps, we strive to provide a superior and complete triathlon experience for youth ages 7-19 in order to foster a lifelong love of swim, bike, and run. By combining the expertise of the best minds in Southern Idaho youth sport development along with the tried-and-true structure and organization of USAT youth programs, we offer a safe, supportive, fun, and educational experience for youth of all ages and abilities. Whether it's your child's first bike ride or your junior who wants to compete at Junior Nationals, our clinics and camps will challenge, motivate, and provide appropriate direction.
