Triathlon swim squad sessions
We offer triathlon swim training in a squad environment at Richmond Pools on the Park, making use of their fantastic indoor and outdoor 33m pools. Our sessions are aimed at developing your efficiency and stroke mechanics for triathlon and open water swimming. Head coach, Fiona Ford set up the sessions in 2008 for triathletes and open water swimmers to enjoy training in a friendly squad environment. Feedback from our swimmers indicate the main benefits of squad swimming is access to quality coaching, uninterrupted lane swim time and a progressive program of sessions.
