About the Camp:
We are proud to announce a collaboration between the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA), Asia Triathlon (AST), and World Triathlon (TRI) to introduce the inaugural Pre- & Post-Event Development Camp in Asia. This pioneering initiative marks a significant milestone in fostering athletic development within the region. Together, we will unite our expertise and resources to deliver an unparalleled opportunity for aspiring triathletes. Through this joint endeavour, participants will benefit from world-class coaching, state-of-the-art facilities, and invaluable insights to elevate their skills and performance.

About the Pre- & Post-Event Development Camp:
  - Pre-Event: The result of the race will be determined by each competitor’s ability to start the race in a mentally and emotionally prepared state, with adequate fuel, in the best physical condition and underpinned by the athlete’s understanding of how to race the particular course well.
The World Triathlon Pre-event Camp was created with the specific purpose of giving participants up-to-date knowledge on pre-race preparation, race course analysis, pre- competition nutrition, mental preparation, the goal-setting process and specifically preparing an athlete to race a course well.
The primary objective of the camp is to give coaches and athletes the knowledge, resources, and skills they need to correctly build their race strategy and plan, create their nutrition strategy, work on their mental preparation, and create the most effective pre-race routine.

  - Post-Event: A post-race analysis is crucial to assess your performance, identify what worked and what didn’t, where your strengths lie, and what limiters need to be adjusted.
The World Triathlon Post-Event Development Camp was created with the specific purpose of giving participants up-to-date knowledge on post-race analysis, performance analysis, post- competition nutrition, recovery, goal-setting review and reflective thinking.
The main goal of the camp is to provide coaches and athletes with the information, tools, and expertise they need to properly analyse their race performance and then use this knowledge to develop a better understanding of how to race with an improved level of understanding of all the factors required to consistently race better. This is done by looking at various metrics after a race and performing quantitative and qualitative analyses of the data obtained from that race.
