500 Children Join Us To TRY Something New!
Year two of our Active Nation Kids Tryathlon, and the second event of 5 was a huge success!
On 13th September 2012, The White Horse Leisure & Tennis Centre in Abingdon was the venue this time, attracting 500 Olympic inspired kids aged 7-11 years to take part in our sport and exercise extravaganza! Participants got an opportunity to try a Dance workshops, Strength and Conditioning Classes, an Outdoor Bootcamp, Tennis, Zumba , plus the swim, bike run elements of the Tryathlon.
The purpose of the event was to help children discover new sports and exercise activities that they may not have tried before, and then offer them pathways to further continue their new found interest in this historic Olympic year. It also created a valuable opportunity to gain an insight into the attitudes and engagement of children towards physical activity.
The Kids Tryathlon concept began in 2011 as a positive way of influencing young people’s attitudes towards sport and exercise.
Further Tryathlon events are planned for 2012 to take place in Southampton and Chorley.
