The Junior Club has its own Club Championships held across a number of races and Time Trials from March to September.
Trophies are awarded to the first 3 places in each British Triathlon children’s age category and gender. The scoring system and events are listed below. Dates or qualifying events are chosen to avoid clashes with league races.
We will need plenty of helpers for marshalling, timing etc. for each qualifying race and Time Trial, so there will be a call for parent/carer volunteers nearer the time.
The Junior Club Championships awards ceremony and barbeque are held at Thetford Forest as part of a family bike ride activity in October.
Races
Junior Club Duathlon
The Club Duathlon will be held at IVC as part of an extended training session and will not require pre-entry. We will send out more details nearer the time.
Rob McLean Triathlon
This is our annual Eastern Region race which is also usually an Eastern Region IRC Qualifier. The opening date for entry will be circulated to members in advance to give everyone plenty of opportunity to book a place.
David Juckes Aquathlon
This is our annual inter-club competition race with Walden Triathlon Club (plus other local clubs by invitation), as well as our annual end of season family/team Aquathlon.
Time Trials
Note that Time Trials will be conducted in TriStar race category groups rather than our training squads. The best score in each discipline across both trials will count. All distances will depend upon the category.
Swimming Time Trials
These will be held at IVC during Saturday morning training from 9 to 10am. Distance will vary by TriStar category and will be similar to normal race distances.
Running Time Trials
These will be held on the IVC playing field on a Saturday morning between 8am and 9am before the swimming Time Trial. Distances will vary between 1 and 3 km depending upon TriStar category.
Cycling Time Trials
We aim to hold these on the sports grounds at IVC. Distances will vary between 2km and 6km depending upon TriStar category.
