New Team Triathlon - Selection Criteria

In relation to the Team Triathlon event, the club is now entered in the event.

The club will select the team to represent us on the following criteria:

Eligibility:

• Completed 3 events in Test Triathlon Series


• 2011 Triathlon Ireland Member

Selection Criteria (3 places each, male and female)

• Place 1 (Racing): Junior Winner of Test Triathlon Series 2011


• Place 2 (Racing): Senior Winner of Test Triathlon Series 2011


• Place 3 (Support): Runner-up, Test Triathlon Series 2011

The above members will be invited to take their place on the team and contacted to check their availability to race. If not available to race, or if for any other reason the above criteria do not produce a team of 3 male and 3 female, remaining positions will then be offered according to overal rank in the 2011 Test Triathlon Series. Overall rank will also determine position in the team.

The team must be finalised by 15 September. The support position will act as a substitute in the event that a racing member withdraws due to injury before the race.

Once the team is finalised, there will be a meeting to discuss race strategy and to select a team captain. Arrangements will also be made to obtain suitable bikes for the mountain bike course.
