Abouth the 2026 Hurghada Africa Triathlon Coaching Female Triathletes Workshop:

Introduction:

This workshop addresses that gap by providing coaches with practical, evidence-informed strategies to better understand, support, and optimise the performance of female triathletes. Rather than positioning differences as limitations, the workshop reframes them as opportunities for smarter, more individualised coaching.

In addition, this initiative aims to increase female participation in endurance sports and actively empowers female coaches by strengthening knowledge, confidence, and leadership in coaching environments.

Workshop Overview:

This 1h30 interactive workshop introduces coaches to the essential concepts required to effectively train and support female athletes. It combines scientific insights with practical coaching tools, ensuring participants can immediately apply what they learn in real-world settings.

The session is structured to balance short knowledge inputs with activities, reflection, and practical application, while also contributing to the broader goal of increasing female participation in sport and empowering female coaches through education and applied practice.

Target Audience:

• Triathlon coaches (beginner to intermediate)

• Endurance coaches working with female athletes

• Sports practitioners interested in female athlete development
