2010 TECK National Junior Series
Here is a preview of the series. Athletes must complete 3 out of 4 races to be eligible for prizes. Very exciting that many races are adding an additional DRAFT-LEGAL heat for 14-15 yr olds to gain experience in pack riding. Athletes must still show proof they are draft-legal certified before registering in a drafting event. Contact your PGB (Provincial Governing Body) for more details.

Kids of Steel® and Youth Subsidies
In 2009 we piloted a Kids of Steel® subsidy program, offering up to $1000 for activities and events that either, A) provided an opportunity for new KOS athletes to try triathlon, or B) staged activities designed to help Youth athletes “bridge up” to Junior racing. We had applications from 9 out of 10 provinces and projects ranging from summer Tri clinics for inner-city children to Youth drafting camps. It was a fantastic response, so we will be continuing the subsidy program again in 2010. |
