Tetrathlon combines swimming, shooting, a 1km run and cross-country. Members compete in teams of 4 and you don't need to be an olympic athlete to take part. It is marvellous fun for both competitors and supporters.
Swimming training and shooting training will be getting underway soon so please contact us if you would like to take part. If you are interested text TETRATHLON and your name to the club mobile and we will make sure you are included in all text messages.
The 2012 Tetrathlon Championships will take place on 11th and 12th August Venue to be announced
Minimus for U12 Members,
June 23rd & 24th 2012 Venue to be announced
Great fun for all members under 12 on 1st January with a mixture of swimming for 2 mins followed by a 1km run and then X Country on pony back jumping Fences of around 70 cms. This is a full IPC Championship and Wicklow PC will be sending down Teams of Four to compete.
Teams will be selected after we assess the ability of each member on the X Country phase. Members please note that while you may be excellent swimmers or runners your X Country ability will determine whether you are placed on a Team. This is not based on being a fast pony rider but on being able to get around a full X Country course in a safe manner. The IPC asks DCs not to sign off children who have not competed at this level prior to the championships so please go along to whatever practice events the trainers recommend.
Members interested please contact the club. This event is great fun and an ideal way for new members to get to know each other.
