Welcome to the Wakefield Triathlon Winter Series 2023/2024
Internal events are generally free to enter, although there may be a few with small charges, such as those with swimming pool entrances. Events that are external to WTC are likely to require you to pre-register prior to competing in the event, and entry fees may apply. We will advertise these events via email and on the Facebook page as they become open for entries.
Scoring and rules:
-
For each event in the Summer Series, 50 points will be awarded for 1st place, 49 for 2nd, 48 for 3rd and so on, down to 1 point.
-
Volunteer points count towards your final score and are awarded as follows; 10 points for your 1st volunteering event, 2 points are awarded for volunteering events thereafter up to a maximum point limit of 20 points (20p = 6no. times volunteered).
-
Best 8 events count in the final standings. The maximum score achievable is therefore 430.
