TATA Kids of Steel 2011
TATA Kids of Steel is the British Triathlon tool for engaging with schools.
The children's events are now in their third year, with over 10,000 children having been given the opportunity to have fun, combining the three disciplines of swimming, cycling and running, in one enjoyable event.
This unique series sees the British Triathlon Federation partnering with its long standing sponsor and now Corporate Partner TATA in delivering a fun and healthy day for school children between the ages of eight and thirteen. Bikes, helmets and t-shirts are provided, so children only need to turn up with a pair of trainers and some swimming attire, helping to make the event accessible to all.
Chief Executive Officer of the British Triathlon Federation Zara Hyde Peters said, "We are delighted that we will once again be able to provide children with an early experience of triathlon. In conjunction with our Corporate Partners, TATA, we take great pride in providing a fun, active and enjoyable day that creates opportunities for children to achieve their personal triathlon challenges, while keeping a big smile on their faces."
Director of Construction Solutions at TATA, Murray Bean said, "Supporting grassroots triathlon is a major part of our sponsorship of British Triathlon. It's great that so many children took part in the TATA Kids of Steel events last year. We're hoping to reach even more kids this summer, as the interest from schools across the communities we operate in and the markets we serve has been amazing. The events are a great way to get children involved in a new and exciting sport. As the day is all about having a go, we hope that attendees will go away with a positive experience and whether they chose to take up triathlon or not, that they continue to lead active and healthy lifestyles."
