(Dallas, Texas, January 29, 2020)– It was announced that PLAYTRI opened a dedicated swim facility in McKinney, TX. Playtri is proud to be continuing its dedication to and investment in the knowledge and education of the sport of triathlon.

Playtri’s Mission Statement is to support athletes everywhere on their journey to find a healthy, sustainable lifestyle – no matter the goal or chosen finish line. With a dedicated swimming pool, Playtri can offer athlete access to the 25-yard swimming pool for weekly practices, training camps, open-water swim simulation, one-on-one coaching, and on-demand training videos.  The outfitting of the new facility was supported in part by the High Performance Team Grant Program from USA Triathlon as part of their efforts to promote the formation of development teams for youth and junior athletes focused on draft-legal racing.

“Investing in our own aquatics facility will allow for extensive growth to both our junior and adult programming in the North Texas area, and provide new opportunities for athletes worldwide in the form of year-round individual and group training camps with our exceptional coaching staff. We are excited to continue to broaden our coaching opportunities and knowledge via this new resource.” -Morgan Johnson Hoffman, Playtri Head Coach
