About The Club :: Activities

Our Club's objectives are to encourage participation in Triathlon, Duathlon and Multisport in the Taranaki Region.
These objectives are achieved by:

  1. Organising a number of events in the season.

  2. Organising Taranaki Championship events.

  3. Organising Secondary School Triathlon and Duathlon Championships

  4. Providing advice and encouragement to participants

  5. Providing a Newsletter for members.

  6. Providing a starting point and training ground for many Club members who progress to compete successfully at national and international events.

People tell us that they like our Club events because we have a pretty laid back family atmosphere. Certainly we'd like to think that nobody is put off our events because they become too serious.  

Features:

  1. We provide events for all age groups and abilities.

  2. We provide long and short distance races at each event.

  3. For non-swimmers we have duathlon options available.

  4. Participants can compete as individuals or as part of a team.

  5. 50 % or more of our competitors are women

  6. Volunteers run our club. Your assistance is very welcome.

  7. All revenue is put back into the sport.
