FAQ

Why should I join the #SLAPPERS?

We are a fun group of endurance-loving multi-sport athletes in Central Florida. The foundation of the team is to bring people together to motivation, encouragement, friendship, and competition! We also have highly educated and experienced triathlon & swim coaches at many of the group training sessions. The #SLAPPERS support each other in training, racing, and in life!

Not a problem! There are no limits to how many USA Triathlon clubs you are a member of.


How much does it cost to be on the team?
