1-2-TRI GO!

For the past few months, Triathlon Quebec has been creating a youth development program, 1-2-TRI GO! This program contains a repertoire of skills classified into different levels, seven levels to be exact. It is presented as a package in a form of passport which includes rewards for athletes, guides, worksheets and tracking sheets for coaches.



Orders

Orders are only available for Triathlon Quebec members (clubs and coaches). For the other PSO’s, the program can also be used, but they are responsible for their own orders and printing (passeports, stickers, wristbands) from their suppliers.

Guidelines :

Passports format : 5″ x 7″

Stickers format : round, 3/4″ x 3/4″ (ULINE)

Wristbands format : junior (WristBandToday)

For more details on the visuals, see the “Rewards” section below.

Goals

Main goals :

  • Develop the athlete’s basic skills in each of the triathlon disciplines.

  • Promote long-term healthy and active lifestyles in athletes.

  • Standardize the essential skills to be acquired by young triathletes in order to optimize their long-term development.

  • Offer a progress tracking tool for athletes and participants.

Who can use the program, and how?

Recognized clubs and coaches can use the program in order to coach their young triathletes. The entire program (except the rewards) is available for free on this page.
