Welcome to Wakefield Junior Triathlon Club (WJTC)
We are a friendly, volunteer-led sports club for children aged 7–17. Our aim is to help young people enjoy swimming, cycling, and running in a safe, welcoming environment.
Our training sessions take place across venues in Wakefield, led by qualified coaches and run under the guidance of British Triathlon. Every child is supported to build skills, confidence, and friendships — whether they are new to sport or already experienced.
Every child’s journey is different, so some of our juniors train just for fun and fitness, while others go on to compete in triathlons, duathlons, and local races. Whatever their goal, we help them be the best they want to be.
