NEW HP DIRECTOR ANNOUNCED

Great news:

From www.triathloncanada.com.

TORONTO—Weeks removed from the 2012 Olympic Summer Games, Triathlon Canada has made a critical move towards securing its return to the international podium with the hiring of Libby Burrell as its new high-performance director.

With rich experience deeply rooted in the sport – from coaching to sport science - Burrell joins Triathlon Canada in a role she is very familiar with; the South African successfully filled the same role for Triathlon South Africa and United States Triathlon before joining the International Triathlon Union as director, sport development in 2006.

RETURN OF THE PROVINCIAL TEAM

A few exciting things in the works for Triathlon in Ontario. We'll soon have a new part-time Provincial Development Coach, a position which has been vacant since we changed from the PTC to the RTC here in Guelph.

We're also going to bring back the junior provincial team. It will be a fairly simple process this year; new race suits for the podium finishers at Junior Provincials in Ottawa (ie. the top 3 male and female Ontario athletes). We'll work hard to have the suits sized and screened before Junior Nats in Kelowna, and screening will include club logos to ensure clubs/coaches are recognized.
