10.01.2022 Tamworth Triathlon Club is working to keep our home pool - Kootingal open this summer with non-potable water.
08.01.2022 This weekend is the officially the beginning of the 2019/2020 Tamworth Triathlon Series. Saturday October 26th. We're sponsored by the Kootingal Hotel and Proac...tive Physio. Big news: triathlons can be expensive for families. No more in Tamworth. If you're an adult taking part - your kids enter for free. We want triathlons to be accessible for everyone. So our decision to make kids free with mum, dad or a carer participating is so that we can all have a go and try new sports that are supportive and fun. If there is a leg you don't want to do - just talk to us and we will find someone to do it for you! We have events for every single age from 2 - 122. It's not hard. You can enter as a team and we'll help you get started. Children must be over 8 to enter any road cycling and must be accompanied by an adult - one adult per child. BUT we also have events off the road for younger children. Come and join us for a great night of support, cheering and sharing the awesomeness of the human body. We love first-timers. We love family sport. We love supporting to the finish line. Rego at Kooty pool 430-515PM. Events start at 6PM. All welcome. You don't have to be a member of our club - come and try it and have a chat. See you Saturday!! Gold coin BBQ and a cold beer at the Kooty Hotel after the events. Whooohooo .. triathlons are back!

We're for the beginners. We're for the not so fit but want to get fitter. We're for the team and sense of community. You've got this.
08.01.2022 Thank you Tamworth Regional Council for keeping these kids active this summer. 80 kids in the pool swimming for health over the past two hours. Many of these ki...ds are from farming properties with little reprieve from the dry. It offers the kids and their families a vital mental and physical health outlet. Kootingal pool is operating on bore water - not suitable for drinking. The pool uses only a small amount of water as it is covered to prevent evaporation. The difference this pool makes you the Kootingal community, economy and our kids is immeasurable. Keep kooty pool open and thank you TRC. See more
08.01.2022 Thank you to the Councillors at Tamworth Regional Council who this evening voted unanimously in favour of opening Kootingal and Scully pools with NON-POTABLE water. The Councillors were empathetic to the mental health and physical health needs of our community in times of drought. They were also supportive of the need for children to continue to learn and become confident swimmers. Thank you Councillors and Mayor Murray for your clear empathy for the community and your unders...tanding of keeping lives uplifted in these times. The Councillors voted to reassess the operation of these pools when Chaffey reaches 15 percent. Tamworth Triathlon Club See more

05.01.2022 These feet don't show the extra weight I'm carrying after cooking my way through Covid. These feet don't feel the minimal excersise I've been doing while I focu...s on my kids. These feet don't care what I wear or how I look when I give triathlon a crack. But ... these feet will swim, bike and run me through the triathlon season ... and the other stuff will change for the better because of it. Ill start with my feet. How about yours? See more
