Sun City: Tri-ing since 1993!
Sun City Tri is one of the North East's leading Triathlon Clubs, catering for all levels from absolute beginners to World Championship medal winners. The club was started in 1993, so 2009 sees us celebrating 16 years of tri in Sunderland. We have members who have competed for almost 20yrs, several Ironman finishers and lots of members who just enjoy getting fitter. Whatever you want from Triathlon we reckon we have the knowledge and skills to make Triathlon a great experience for you (and we have the "STAR mark" to prove it), plus we're one of the most welcoming clubs around.

- Sun City Triathlon 2009: Entries are now open for the Sun City Triathlon 2009, which will also act as the North East region's Sprint distance championships. You can find out more on the race's own page or enter online via the Trihard website.

- FACEBOOK GROUP: Sun City Tri now have a Facebook group- if you're a club member and you're on Facebook, look it up and join in! It won't replace this website and the information you'll find here, but it's an extra way to keep in touch with friends from the club. What do you mean you're not on Facebook? Think of all the time you'd be able to waste if you were...
- 2009 EVENTS: we're looking for volunteers to take on the role of "event leaders" for each of our three club races in 2009 with Mandy acting as an overall "events manager" and providing support. Email or speak to her if you're interested or to find out more. We're also looking to expand the range of events we organise and suggestions so far include a bike "sportive" ride, a 10K run and a surf aquathlon on the beach. Again, speak to Mandy if you're interested in taking the lead on one or more of these, or have your own ideas for events. We'll give you all the support we can!
