THE TEAM PLAYTRI MISSION

usa triathlon high performance Development Team

Team Playtri Elite has been named a High Performance Team Program by USA Triathlon, and have continued to meet the increasing standard for that designation over the years, providing proof of the value of proper foundational training for young athletes.

Our mission as an HPDT is to create one of the best elite and elite development training environments in the world. If you would like to be part of this mission, either as an athlete or as a coach, please email morgan@playtri.com. 

"The goal of the USA Triathlon High Performance Development Team (HPDT) program is to increase the number and quality of developmental programs serving teenage and developmental elite athletes across the nation. USAT-designated High Performance Teams are the backbone of our development program. In addition to providing both in-person and remote coaching, High Performance Teams are a conduit for information and advice. HPDTs play an integral role in the identification, recruitment, development, and age-appropriate competitive preparation of emerging Youth, Junior, and U23 athletes. They are also required to assist USAT in maintaining strict adherence to USADA and Safe Sport standards." -USA Triathlon

THE AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT MODEL

Team Playtri strives to adhere to the 10 Principles of the American Development Model as presented by the US Olympic Committee, and emphasizes age-appropriate training and competition, with an emphasis on good sportsmanship and positive attitude. Our mission is "Building Life-Long Athletes with World-Class Potential," meaning that we strive to provide young athletes with the skills and mentality needed to enjoy a lifetime of sport, along with the foundational skills necessary for high performance at an appropriate age for those who choose to pursue that goal.

Because of this, over 80% of our athletes participate in skills-based, recreational team programs that emphasize fun, form and fitness over competition.
