ABOUT US

Windrush Triathlon Club is a super friendly club who love the three sports of triathlon: swimming, cycling and running

 

 

Our club name

Our name takes pride in the history of the local area of South East London where our club first formed – Windrush Square in Brixton. The square is named in honour of the Windrush Generation, who moved from the Caribbean to the UK following the Second World War - a tribute to the community that has been instrumental in developing the identity of our local area.

As a sports club in this incredibly diverse area of South London, we want to make triathlon as inclusive and accessible as possible. However, we recognise that our club membership is not as diverse as it could or should be.

Our doors are open to members from all communities who might be interested in trying out running, cycling or swimming. We continue to explore ways in which we can make both our junior and adult membership more diverse, and welcome thoughts and feedback on the inclusivity of our club.

Getting involved  

Did you know – you don’t have to be capable in all three sports to be part of a triathlon club?

Running, cycling, and swimming can be for anyone, as part of a triathlon or on their own.

Some of our members choose to only dip into one or two sports, rather than all three.

You could run and cycle.

Or swim and run.

Or take part in just one sport and enjoy getting fit with a group of friendly locals.

Who also love cake…!
