YOUNG triathletes are in for another delight as the Triathlon Association of the Philippines (TRAP) begins their quest for the next star in the National Grassroots Program (NaGP) Batang Tri Program today at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa in Lapu-Lapu City.
The event, which addresses all fundamental movement skills needed in the sport, will have three categories, namely, the Mini-Batang Tri 8-9, Mid-Batang-Tri 10-12 and the premier Super-Batang Tri 13-15 divisions.
The young athletes will have a lot of ground to cover today as they are set to master their swimming and biking skills by testing their coordination, jumping, throwing, catching, balance and gliding abilities.
On Sunday, the youngsters will apply what they learned when they compete in the Batang TriAquathlon competition at 8 a.m.
