Getting Started
TTTC operates a two week trial period for prospective members, giving you the opportunity to try out some of the training sessions to see whether you enjoy them and wish to join the Club. Please e-mail us if you wish to register for a trial. (Details below) After that, if you want to join, there is a simple Membership Application Form to fill in and return, together with your membership fee.

Meet the Turbos
We are a very friendly bunch with varied backgrounds, experience and achievement lists. Within the club there are beginners working towards their first events and those old campaigners racing hard throughout the field. Whatever your goals there are bound to be members at the same stage as you. We are keen to support members in ‘moving up distances’ or just going faster in their chosen distance. We are particularly proud to have a very large proportion of ladies, and to support our ‘elite’ team, who are generously sponsored by Sigma Sports. We have a thriving youth section.

Youths
Our youth section that takes youngsters from 8 years upwards. The focus of the youths is on fun training that is accessible to all ability levels, although we also boast some London regional champions. The youths have a full and competitive race and training schedule. Training includes two weekly swm sessions, and a weekly bike/run session. A weekly core/Turbo session is also open to older juniors

Youths may also take advantage of our two week trial scheme. To be comfortable in training sessions they should be competent swimmers over 50m front crawl, able to ride a bike, but not required to have high level bike riding skills or running experience. Click Here for an example training schedule.

PLEASE NOTE THERE IS CURRENTLY A WAITING LIST FOR Youth MEMBERS . If you wish to join our waiting list we will ask for your swim times for 50m, 200m and/or 400m if appropriate. This is because vacancies occur in different swimming ability lanes as youngsters move on or up. Wait times for lanes therefore vary. We need your swim times before we can put you on the waiting list.  Send them to Linda at youthmembership@googlemail.com

Do not hesitate to contact me (Ben) or Charmaine (We jointly look after adult membership matters) by e-mail at membership@thamesturbo.co.uk. We will be very happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to hearing from you.

You could also contact our chairman, Nigel Clemens, at chairman@thamesturbo.co.uk
