Triathlon Coach Nick Croft

Having run his first training camp in Noosa in 1998, Nick Croft has been involved in coaching and athlete education for more than 25 years. The rebirth of Noosa Tri Camps in 2009 saw two camps held, followed by eight camps in 2010, including custom camps and an international destination camp.

Nick raced professionally for 10 years, competing all over the world and winning 35 of the 130 events he contested. Today, he brings that extensive racing experience to his role as one of the lead triathlon coaches at Multisport Consultants.

Mixing his vast experience with hands-on coaching, Nick oversees the camp structure and works with the experienced coaching team to make each athlete’s experience memorable and rewarding.

Winning the Triathlon Australia Ironman Coach of the Year award in 2005 was a coaching highlight. However, Nick’s passion remains working directly with age-group athletes and helping them improve their training, confidence and understanding of the sport.

He enjoys passing on the knowledge, tips and techniques he learned during an era when dedicated triathlon coaching was far less common.

The beautiful surrounds of Noosa provide the perfect triathlon playground to complete the Noosa Tri Camps experience.

Triathlon Coach Jess Fleming

Jess Fleming brings to Noosa Tri Camps a sporting background typical of many athletes who come to triathlon from other disciplines. Before taking up triathlon, Jess competed in basketball at national level during her junior years and was also an accomplished downhill skier.

She later turned to gym training and cross-training to stay fit before taking the plunge into triathlon at age 30. Jess quickly developed a passion for cycling and became a strong performer on the bike from her first few events.

Swimming came later, but Jess made significant progress in the discipline. The half Ironman distance became one of her favourite events, and she produced strong age-group performances over the 1.9 km swim, 90 km bike and 21 km run distance.

Her achievements included winning her age group at the Gold Coast Half Ironman with a best time of 4:38.

As one of the Multisport Consultants triathlon coaches and a Noosa Tri Camps director alongside Nick, Jess believes in keeping training balanced while still enjoying the triathlon journey.

Triathlon Coach Jan Croft

Jan Croft has been involved with triathlon since Nick made his debut in the sport in 1984. It did not take long for Jan to take on the challenge herself, completing her first triathlon in 1987.

A former Australian champion swimmer, Jan won the Australian 800 metre freestyle championship in 1961 and 1962. She later completed more than 200 triathlons and competed in four Ironman events, including the Hawaii Ironman twice.

Jan is one of Australia’s most experienced age-group competitors. Winning the Triathlon World Championship in her age group over the Olympic distance in 2000 was one of the highlights of her racing career.

In later years, Jan moved away from running but continued competing at a high level in masters swimming and cycling.

As an experienced masters swim coach and accomplished swimmer, Jan has been a valuable member of the Noosa Tri Camps coaching staff and adds another level of experience to our team of triathlon coaches.

Additional support staff and guest elite athletes are also used as required, depending on camp size and athlete experience.
