Age Group Qualification
Membership of British Triathlon allows you the chance to qualify for a place in the British Age-Group Team and wear your very own GBR tri-suit in the European (ETU) or World (ITU) Championships.
Age Group Qualifier Races are listed on the British Triathlon website under "Events>Championships and Qualifiers". To automatically qualify for a Championships, you'll need to finish in the top four who have registered in your age group. You'll also need be within 120% (European Champs) or 115% (World Champs) of the age-group winner's time. Roll-down places are also available, so with a bit of careful planning, it's not as hard to qualify as you might think! Don’t forget to register your “intention to qualify” for the relevant Championships with British Triathlon BEFORE the race - this costs £12.
There are lots of chances to qualify for Championships, including Aquathlons, Duathlons, Triathlons and even Aquabike.
If you want to know more, or need some help working out how to register or which Championships to aim for, speak to our AG Rep, Marianne Carpenter. There is also an Amphibs "AgeGroup" Whatsapp chat you can join, where you can post questions, buddy up on transport to qualifiers, and find out who else has qualified.
