How can I apply for LTPC?

The LTPC has four selective training groups and through a collaborative process between both coaches and athletes aims to ensure athletes enter into environments that best supports them in developing both in and out of triathlon.

Athletes who would like to be considered for membership to any of the three selective squads should apply via the link at the bottom of the page.

 

 

Olympic Squad

Based on an initial assessment of performance standards and history within the sport, athletes will be invited to attend trials on the dates below.  Athletes meeting the minimum performance standards will then be invited to interviews, to help determine which group is most suitable to support your development.

Paralympic Squad

The Paralympic squad primarily supports athletes on the World Class Performance programme and national talent squad. Based on applications successful athletes will be invited to interview with key coaching and support staff, to determine whether the Paralympic Squad is the right environment to help that athlete develop. Prospective athletes will be able to access squad training sessions for the first two weeks of the academic term, to help both the athlete and coaching staff get a better understanding before interviews take place.

Dates for interviews: Week commencing 10th October

Development Squad

Based on an initial assessment of performance standards and history within the sport, athletes will be invited to attend trials alongside the Olympic squad. Athletes that are near to the guideline performance standards will then be invited to interviews, to help determine which group is most suitable to support your development.

Athletes with a single discipline ‘super strength’ will also be considered, whether they have a background in triathlon or not.
