Below you will find brief details of the Test & Train 7 day live-in camps for Triathletes. We also offer a 3 day Camp - mid week (arrive Tuesday depart Friday) or a weekend camp (arrive Friday depart Monday). The camps are held at our Narrabeen location at the Sydney Academy of Sports facility - set in 300 acres (120 hectares) of natural bushland, next to a lake by a surf beach on the beautiful Northern Beaches of Sydney. A truly spectacular location. The Academy provides accommodation in its own motel or cabins. It offers all the testing and training facilities needed for any athlete.
