Sharpen skills, ramp up fitness, and re-energize motivation during our four-day USA Triathlon designated draft-legal camp in historic Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
Designed for youth, junior, and NCAA draft-legal triathletes, Draft Camp focuses on sharpening skills through repetition, ramping up fitness through daily training and recovery, and re-energizing motivation through friendly competition. And our early July timing provides a perfect daily training environment for youth and junior draft-legal triathletes leading into the final qualifier July 12 and the National Championship August 1-2, and NCAA triathletes preparing for their fall 2026 collegiate season.
