Junior & Youth Sections
Established in 2006, LBT Juniors has grown and developed to form a Junior Section for ages 8-14 and a Youth Section for 15-19 year olds.
We have qualified coaches who deliver structured sessions for swimming, cycling and running activities for all as well as supportive topics for the Youth Section, such as bike maintenance, strength and conditioning and nutrition. All sessions are inclusive and open to all abilities.
We use a number of facilities such as Leeds Beckett University pool and grounds, the Brownlee Centre cycle circuit, Otley Sailing Club lake and other great locations in and around Leeds and Bradford.
Our aim is to provide a fun environment for learning and developing skills and we also encourage participation in local events and races.
If interested in joining please email junior.club@lbt.org.uk or youths@lbt.org.uk
LBT Junior Aquathlon
Each May we host a Junior Aquathlon in Leeds. An Aquathlon is a swim followed immediately by a run and the perfect introduction to multi-sport events. The swim takes place in The Edge, a 25m heated indoor pool and the run is on a closed circuit round the university campus with electronic chip timing. This is a great event for all abilities to get involved in the sport from first timers to junior athletes who hope to compete for the region (The race is part of the Yorkshire Junior Triathlon Series).
Go to our LBT Junior Aquathlon page for more details and to sign up.
