Junior (Under 18) Coaching Enquiries

Due to safeguarding requirements for junior coaching, all under-18 coaching enquiries must be checked in advance.

For confirmation that a coach’s safeguarding requirements are fully up to date, please contact:

📧 Mary – mary@triathlonireland.com

A junior coach is a qualified coach who has completed all required safeguarding checks, including:

  • Garda Vetting and/or Access NI

     

  • Annual signed Code of Conduct

     

  • Safeguard 1 / Safeguarding Children & Young People in Sport certification

     

A parent or guardian should contact Triathlon Ireland first before engaging a coach.

Many triathlon clubs also operate junior programmes with appointed Children’s/Welfare Officers and qualified junior coaches.
