Twenty-one Area 5 competitors qualified to attend the National Triathlon Competition 2019, held in Milton Keynes.
Places are not easy to achieve with many travelling the length and breadth of the country to try to gain a place.
Area 5 produced some fantastic individual and team results throughout the day.

We try to make an event which is welcoming for the less experienced riders and ponies but will also offer a challenge to competent juniors. This is done by using an enclosed field for the younger classes, providing L options at the trickier jumps, and allowing competitors to ride at the level (or even 2 levels) below their own age group. There is no senior course but if there is sufficient demand we could offer a senior class over the junior jumps.
If you have any questions please get in touch.
Hope to see you there …. Penny

The Area 5 Tet Committee is holding a Training day for members without ponies (shoot, run and course walk/slip rail/gate) and a course for the adult who does the shoot training for your Branch or who would be prepared to do it after some training. We are asking that you try to have your Branch represented at this adult shoot training. The emphasis is on safety but there will be some shooting technique included. There will be the opportunity to act as Range Officer on the day. The Adult course will take about 2 hours and start at 10am Mostyn Fun ride. Cost about £5 to cover shot and targets.
This session is designed to give Branch Parents (and others) the knowledge required to coach their own children safely. Please bring the air pistol you will be using and suitable pellets, but if you don’t have access to an air pistol we can probably provide one.
The venue will not be heated!
Shooting: Shoot / Throw under competition conditions then get feedback on your result and a chance for a further 5 pellet shoot or 5 beanbag throw.
Riding: Guided course walk to give you an insight into what to look for and how to prepare to ride a course. Practice the sliprail and discuss tactics for remounting. Practice the gate and discuss how to reduce the time taken. NB – no ponies this time.
Running: Discuss warm up and preparation and how much parents are allowed to help.
Swimming: not specifically covered but we will be happy to answer any questions.
Entry Fee: tbc (hopefully free but we may need to ask for a small donation)
