New for 2016 we are introducing a Club Triathlon Championships.

The aim is to have one venue where we can all race over different distances, in a friendly and safe environment.

Having lots of WSW competitors in the same race is also a good way to measure ourselves against each other and also get to know one another.

With this in mind we have selected the Fritton Triathlon weekend 18th/19th June. Situated between Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft on the Norfolk Broads, Fritton Lake (NR31 9HA) is an ideal venue and having the championship as part of an open competition, it allows all members to enter.

Format

There are three race distances to choose from: super sprint, sprint and Olympic. Each race is  split into age groups, 17-34, 35-47, 48-60 and 61+, so something for everyone.

Trophies will be awarded for first man & woman in each age group, and these will be presented at the annual club awards event.

Entry

Entry at the Fritton lake site via this link http://www.frittonlakeoc.co.uk/events/triathlon-festival-weekend/

This weekend of racing is more than just triathlon, it's a perfect family day out or weekend away, where we can support and cheer each other on. Lots of accommodation on site from Camping, B&B or self catering Woodland Lodges.

Race for yourself, Race for your club, be part of the team.

I really hope as club we enter and support this and in future years the Club Triathlon Championship race is the first date in your diary. See you on the start line!
