Triathlon Ontario, in collaboration with leading race organisers MultiSport Canada (MSC) and World Endurance Canada (WEC) has confirmed a new fee structure for their respective race series. This new, simpler fee structure will ‘provide the participants with a better consumer focused experience while at the same time generating much needed funding for Triathlon Ontario’s mission of promoting and growing triathlon and multisport in Ontario.’
The funds generated will be put back into the sport through youth, junior, elite and age group developmental programs as well as club, coach and officials expansion. Triathlon Ontario acknowledges and is grateful to the management of WEC and MSC for the hard work and time all parties put into the effort to provide a cost effective and customer friendly experience for the athletes.
Those athletes who choose not to become full Triathlon Ontario members with all the benefits conferred to them will be able to opt for a limited, series specific membership and a reduced, one-time fee.
Athletes will pay the Limited Series Membership of C$10 with their first race registration. Subsequent race entries for the respective race series, WEC* or MSC, will not be charged an additional fee (see below).
MSC and WEC have committed to working with the Board of Directors of Triathlon Ontario to ensure continued development and implementation of programs targeting athlete development and in support of the growth of triathlon and multisport in Ontario. They look forward to seeing the delivery of the various programs to which their events have contributed funding and will continue in their support of Triathlon Ontario.
*does not include IRONMAN 70.3 Muskoka
The new fee structures are as follows:
Triathlon Ontario Annual Membership – C$45 (Club Member) or C$55 (individual)
- Covers race day fees for all races in Ontario
Limited Triathlon Ontario Membership Race Fee – C$10
- Covers MultiSport Canada or World Endurance Canada* races only. This fee is a one-time fee and provides the athlete with coverage for all races in the respective series.
Example:
- Athlete purchases a Triathlon Ontario Membership for C$45 or C$55. This athlete would not pay any additional race day fees for any race in Ontario. This offers value for those athletes who race in multiple events throughout the province.
- Athlete who traditionally competes in only WEC or MSC races. The athlete will pay a Limited Triathlon Ontario Membership Race Fee of C$10. This fee will cover the athlete for all races within the specific series. If an athlete competes in both series they would pay this fee for each series, for a total of C$20. Should that athlete wish to compete in independent races they would be subject to the One Day Race Fee.
