Hi being fairly new to this sport and there seems to be a few clubs in the area so personal reccomendations would be appreciated.
I'm signed up for my first tri on June 28th at Scissett, it's a sprint distance and figured joining a club would motivate me and give my training a structure as I'm hopeless by myself.
Thanks [:D]

Welcome to the sport Rockmonkey. Sorry, I can't recommend a tri club in the area since I'm in the US but I would definitely pick one and join. Having training partners is great and it helps with the motivation.
You probably are aware of all of the tri clubs in the area, but if not take a peak at this.

Best of luck,
The OW swim is at Otley - that might be a bit of a trek.
But there is the Calderdale one which is perhaps nearer. I've never met anywhere from that club, so I can't really comment.
Look on the BTF web site - there is a ranking system for clubs - well, star marks or something - you really want to be looking for a good coaching programme.
Wakefield Tri Club, It's just 8 mile down the road from the Scissett baths at Pugneys water sports centre, open water swimming on Sat and Sunday 9 till 10 plus other sessions
Also Scisset baths has a 'coached' Tri swim training on wednesday nights 8:30 till 9:30
Best of luck
Monday nights at the Holmfirth Pool is tri training, come along and we can point you at someone in the know.
Good luck for all events you have planned
