The 2012 ITU Age Group Sprint World Championships on 22nd October 2012 will take place along the world famous Auckland Waterfront, bringing thousands of age-group athletes and triathlon fans to New Zealand.

In order to qualify to represent Great Britain at the 2012 ITU Age Group Sprint World Championships, you must be a member of a Home Nations Association (Triathlon England, Welsh Triathlon, Triathlon Scotland) and hold a valid race licence.

To find out the qualification criteria please visit www.britishtriathlon.org/ge-gb-teams/age-group/how-to-qualify. You must have registered to qualify on the BTF website by 5pm on the Friday prior to the qualification event you are taking part in or your result at the qualifier will not count.

The Eton Sprint Distance Triathlon takes place at the fantastic Dorney Lake, which will be one of the venues for the 2012 Olympic Games. 

The race starts with a 750m open water swim in the clear, clean waters of the rowing lake before taking to the closed, flat road circuit for a 4-lap bike course covering 20km. The final 5km run follows a 2-lap loop along the side of the rowing lake on tarmac paths.  

Race details, including timings and wave structure, will be emailed out to all entrants at least two weeks before the race and you will also be able to see them on the website.

RaceLocation

The event will be held at the rowing venue for the 2012 Olympic Games. Dorney Lake offers a clean open water swim, followed by a closed bike loop around the Lake, and finally the run goes down the side of the lake, making it the perfect course for beginners and seasoned triathletes alike. It's great for spectators, they can see you on each lap.

Full on-site parking means you can come and go while the event is taking place, we have showers and toilets aplenty and there is catering in the Boathouse.
