Memberships
We have members of all ages and abilities. The aim of the club is to encourage people to enjoy triathlon, be the best that they can be and meet like-minded people. Everybody is welcome to join us if you’re interested in swimming, cycling, running and other forms of multi-sport. To attend our swimming sessions we ask that you are able to swim 400 metres front crawl. There is no minimum speed.
If you'd like to join the club please fill in the online membership form https://htc.clubpal.app/
We are run entirely by volunteers, none of our coaches, committee members or marshals are paid. They give up their time to make our club the great club that it is. We ask that all of our members volunteer to marshal at one of our three organised events in the year - all of the money raised helps to subsidise our club sessions, pay for the coaching courses and subsidise the club kit.
We cater for adults from 18 years and upwards (and there's no upper limit!) We do have some members who are aged between 16 and 18, who are accompanied by their parent or a designated adult during the club sessions. Please contact us if you’d like to know more about becoming a youth member.
The first triathlon in Herefordshire was held in 1987 from the rowing club. The success of the event inspired a group of multi-sports enthusiasts to set up the club in 1988 when we were based at the former Greyfriars hotel and gym. The club held our first race in 1990 and since then we’ve grown steadily.
We pride ourselves on being one of the friendliest, most relaxed clubs around and everybody is welcome to come and try out one of our training sessions. Most people start by coming along to our coached swimming session on Tuesday evenings – for more information please go to the training page. Membership is just £25 per year (free for students). As a member you’ll be able to attend our coached sessions, take part in the summer and winter cross country running series and summer time trial cycling series.
