Event Information

Absolutely! The Discover Tri program is designed for beginners as a healthy weekend activity for Kids. Our crew and volunteers are onsite ready to assist with any questions and guide them through the swim, ride and run. 

The event is not timed and every child receives a medal at the finish – it’s all about the fun experience!

There is the option for children who may be nervous about the swim, ride or run to skip one of the legs. We do encourage them to do the other two however, to get their multi-fun experience. 

The full calendar of events can be found here. 

An Event Guide will be emailed to all families in the fortnight prior to the event with all the information you need to know. 

A final Event Update email and text message will also be sent out on the Wednesday prior to the event with any final updates you need to know about.
