Professional triathlete and Parcours ambassador Laura Siddall is launching a competition for young (14-25 year old) female triathletes – with a chance to win triathlon prizes and a year of personal mentorship.
British brand Parcours has teamed up with Siddall, in the hunt for… ‘someone with a passion for swim, bike and run, who works hard and is driven and energised about their love for triathlon.’
In return, the applicant will receive a year of mentoring and support from Laura Siddall and a set of Parcours wheels of their choice, along with several high value prizes from Laura’s other partners. These include a Deboer wetsuit, a Kask helmet, Hoka One One running shoes and apparel, Funkita swimwear, CREDO annual subscription, TheMagic5 goggles, Oakley sunglasses, Witsup Apparel, and a Neuff-Red discount code and educational seminar access.
Dov Tate, Founder of Parcours, said “Heading into 2021, we wanted to go further than just supporting our existing elite athletes. The aim of our campaign with Laura is to support the next generation of female triathletes.
“We are proud to be able to offer the successful applicant equipment and guidance to help them grow and develop in the sport. 2021 will be the fourth year of our partnership with Laura and we’re really excited to help launch ‘Sid’s Squad’. Over the years we have seen Laura succeed in her own racing and it’s fantastic to see her take steps to help the next generation of athletes come through.”
Professional triathlete Laura Siddall said “I’m excited to announce that, thanks to Parcours, I think and hope we have a really exciting opportunity, to support a young female triathlete. I’ve had so many incredible experiences through sport that I want to help and support someone else so that they can create their own adventures and strive to be the best they can be.
“Setting up a scheme to support other athletes is something I’ve wanted to do for a while and is something I’m very passionate about.”
To apply, entrants are asked to complete an application form and submit a short video talking about themselves, what they love about triathlon, and why they deserve to win. Under 18s are eligible to enter but must have permission from a parent or guardian.
