New Program for Kids and Parents
Thank you in advance for your continuous support in “Spreading the love for Triathlon”.
TriKidz aims is to introduce triathlon to the community at grass-root level. We believe Triathlon is a good and healthy sport and one that can be enjoyed by everyone regardless of age. We hope to create a Triathlon culture here in Malaysia by getting families involved. Parents must know the importance of having the kids to be healthy, go outdoors, be active and most importantly have fun.
We believe everybody must have been anxiously waiting for the TriKidz event this coming weekend on the 21st and 22nd March 2009 at the Sport Centre University of Malaya – Swimming Pool area. Thank you again to the venue sponsor.
As part of our educational effort, we would like to announce that we will make a different in the event. We would like to invite especially all parents or guardians to participate in an hour presentation/ discussion “Getting Acquaintance with Triathlon” session, conducted by an appointed and qualified speaker during the clinic on Saturday 21st March 2009. At the end of the session, among other things, parents will get the exposure about History of Triathlon, future of Triathlon (note, Youth 2010 Singapore Olympic), who is in Triathlon (organisation supporting and developing Triathlon), meals and nutrition, physiological, psychological and training aspects for children in Triathlon. The session will last with Q&A session. Best of all… It is free for all… The session is expected to commence at 10.00 a.m. (Tentative location will be at DK1 (Dewan Kuliah 1) which can accommodate around 200pax. So folks, book you diary!!!
