Performance Squad

The performance squad is for club members who have huge potential or already consistently perform to a high standard. It has the aim of developing talented athletes further, enabling them to maximise their athletic potential while also raising the profile of the club. Benefits of being in the squad include: 

• We will provide to you a training environment in which you can excel, which includes tailored training sessions and Performance Squad only sessions

• We will provide individual coaching with a monthly 45min 1-2-1 session with the Performance coach and access to Training Peaks

• We will provide swim & run video analysis and technique correction

• We will provide bespoke strength and conditioning sessions

Joining the performance squad requires an extra £90/term on top of the regular membership cost. For this you receive the benefits above, as well as 5 additional training sessions. We ask that these athletes demonstrate a high level of commitment to the club, participate in BUCS and other signature races, and act as role models and advisors to fellow club members.

The performance squad has developed over the past few years and this year we are pleased to have Steve Lloyd, British Triathlon Level 3 coach, on the coaching team. Steve is the regional head coach for the West Midlands Academy and has extensive experience in coaching performance triathletes. Steve’s role is predominantly with the performance squad, coaching all their sessions and providing individual feedback to athletes.
