We are a small club with minimal bureaucracy or fuss.
We have a tiny committee, small annual fee, and lots of value.
Our coaches work collaboratively together and do it for the joy of coaching!

Secretary
Alex West
I'm a keen swimmer both in the pool and outdoor. I am for an open water swim wherever we are on holiday, as long as there is water!
I've completed numerous 3-5k swim events but only one triathlon (a very long time ago!).
Joining TriSmooth could be the impetus I need to try another.
