Junior (Under 18) Coaching Enquiries

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

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.
