Royal Artillery PC Tetrathlon and Triathlon Team selection policy
For branch Triathlon competitions where team selection is required, ie there are more than 4 RA competitors in a class; the Tetrathlon manager will select competitors members with the highest scores at recent competitions, taking into account commitment, age and opportunities.   When there are a series of competitions the 4th member will swap around giving others an opportunity to be in the RA team.  Commitment to training and competing, and age will also be taken into account.  The aim is to be as inclusive as possible with the opportunity for the branch team to do as well as possible.  Members not in the RA team will be included in a mixed team arranged by the event organiser.
Teams for Tetrathlon competition the ride phase will have a strong influence together with the Triathlon scores for team selection.
The intention is for all RA members to feel part of the wider RAPC Tetrathlon team at all competitions and in training
