Junior Training
TSE organises a number of Training sessions for Junior members in all three disciplines. Training sessions are held on a regular basis, this helps to develop their core strength, competitive results and overall personal achievement levels. Most of the sessions are designed specifically for our Junior members, but some training session will be incorporated into the main club sessions with Senior members.
Swim Sessions
Sundays 6.00 - 7.30pm at Ongar Leisure Centre
This is a mixed session with Adult and Junior members. Generally, there are three coaches supporting six lanes of the 25 metre pool. This session is aimed at all levels of ability, for example people who can only swim two lengths, to those swimmers who can complete the full training session, or strong club swimmers. The main focus for the Juniors is to develop a good Front Crawl technique to allow them to complete the swim section of a race efficiently and improve their overall technique. Cost is just £2 per session for club members.
Bike Sessions One session per month Oct to March, Saturdays 9-10am at Thorndon Country Park, Brentwood Check junior calendar for dates. An hour's off road mountain biking with coach Dean.
