2024 TRIATHLON

OVERVIEW

IT IS ANOTHER FIRST FOR GISSA!

IN 2024, GISSA ADDS ANOTHER NEW EVENT TO ITS SCHEDULE WITH THE INAUGURAL GISSA TRIATHLON CHAMPIONSHIPS.

AND WHAT A LOCATION TO MAKE THIS DEBUT!

The picturesque Eastern Beach is set to provide a stunning backdrop for students from our Member Schools – as they swim, ride and run along the Geelong waterfront.

This Event is open to students from Year 7 to Year 12, with individual students set to be crowned as Champions at the Junior Level (Year 7-8), Intermediate (Year 9-10 and Senior (Year 11-12) Age Groups.

We are anticipating this will be the first of many Triathlon Championships in the years to come – so good luck to all competitors involved.
