CONGRATULATIONS to all of the TMS/SFS youth triathlon team members for the AWESOME performances this past season. We're so proud of all of you!!
Triangle Multisport has partnered with the Swim For Smiles Foundation to coach a fun and successful Youth Triathlon Team – to be based right here in the Triangle Area. Open to kids ages 6-12, the team is limited to 50-kids (with about a 7-1 coach to athlete ratio) and be divided up by athletic levels (not just age). Each member of the SFS/TMS coaching staff has experience coaching and competing and has extensive coaching resumes!
The Swim for Smiles/Triangle Multisport Triathlon (SFS/TMS) Team welcomes YOUTH athletes regardless of ability, experience level, and skill level. The only requirements are that they must be able to swim one length of the pool unassisted and ride a bike without training wheels. Our team includes beginners who have never done a multisport event to experienced Youth triathletes who have raced in national championships, and everything in between. The 2011 season will be our third season and we are proud of the continued success that we have seen with the kids on the team already.
Our Mission: The Swim for Smiles/Triangle Multisport Triathlon Team will promote health, wellness, fitness and team fellowship in the community. We are committed to helping Youth ages 6-12 enter the sport of triathlons to not only improve their fitness level and endurance through the sport of triathlon but we also do this with the ultimate goal of helping the NC Children’s Hospital by raising the awareness of the Swim for Smiles Foundation.
Membership Dues
Membership dues are only $350/quarter (March-May; June-August; September-November) and include a 50% discount on entry into the Swim for Smiles Youth Trathlon in May and USAT Level 1 and Level 2 coaching as well as branded training and racing gear (swim caps and shirts) with the opportunity to buy racing kits as well. We are a not-for-profit (see the Swim For Smiles DONATE page for more information on our non-profit status) so your dues not only go for paying for the coaching, but also help us raise money for the NC Children’s Hospital in Chapel Hill, NC. The only thing your dues do not cover is a USAT Annual membership - $15 per year (https://www.usatmembership.com/UsatAnnualMembership.pdf) as well as race entry fees (we will publish an annual list of recommended kids and youth races that the SFS/TMS team will have coaches attending/coaching).

Membership Benefits
Team Workouts and Clinics
We aim to make sure our team members have access to the most workout options possible. We will meet, as a team, each Sunday from 3:00-4:30pm and each Wednesday from 5:00-5:45pm in Chapel Hill for team workouts and occasional meetings. Our Sunday workouts include pool swims, short & long bike rides, and track & trail runs. In addition, we hope offer optional clinics or additonal workouts for those kids who want to train at a higher, more competitive level. Clinic topics would include bike skills workshops, swimming skills for both pool and open water events, running form and endurance topics as well as race-specific course run-throughs – keep an eye on the website and discussion list for current clinic offerings.
Team Newsletter
The communications director will produce a monthly newsletter highlighting club news, race results and member articles.
Sponsorships
We are currently seeking sponsors for this year! Our sponsors will not only help us with team coaching, clothing, hydration and nutrition, but will also offer us discounts at local running and triathlon shops.
Be part of a TEAM
Camaraderie is one of the key benefits of your membership. From finding training partners to making new friends to cheering on a teammate at that big race, you’ll find that the SFS/TMS Triathlon Team is really a TEAM that fosters a truly supportive atmosphere in which your kids can achieve their fitness goals – while also doing something great for the NC Children’s Hospital. Supporting our fellow members and wearing our team gear in the community and our uniforms at races will be a great a source of pride for us.
