Recreation & Competitive

Triathlon offers a unique opportunity to use swim, cycle, and run activity to cross-train for overall fitness. It can also help avoid repetitive stress and narrowed activities as compared to a focus on one sport, and naturally introduces variety to an overall fitness training program.

Program development and triathlon coach oversight will be provided by Brendan Mackenzie. This program is targeted at youth ages 12 to 19 but we do accept youth that are 10 and 11 that are ready, willing, and able to apply themselves to this type of program. 

​

​

Mandatory basic cost for a Triathlon Saskatchewan annual youth membership is 

• Junior (16-19) - $25.00 + $6.00 Triathlon Canada Fee

The Triathlon Saskatchewan annual fee provides sanctioned insurance for the training for all disciplines as well as entry into Triathlon Saskatchewan sanctioned triathlons. If, within a specific discipline (i.e. swim or run), entry into a competition specific to that discipline is desired, the discipline’s provincial fees must be paid to the discipline club to cover the provincial membership. For example, if a swim competition is to be entered, the provincial sport governing fee must be paid and would be in addition to the fees above.
