For the 2018/19 season, we will award 1st, 2nd and 3rd places for our male and female Triathletes of the year (TOTY), and awards for Swimmer of the Year, Cyclist of the Year, Runner of the Year, and a President’s Award. The TOTY awards are a points based system (refer below for further details), the Swimmer, Cyclist and Runner of the Year are selected by the SBTC Committee while the SBTC President solely selects the recipient of the President’s Award.

The award recipients for each of the categories are announced at the Annual Gala SBTC Awards Night.

The criteria for TOTY is:

1. Achievement in the nominated races (and nominated distance). The points awarded towards TOTY will be based on the size of the event (your result with respect to the number of competitors in your category), and weighted by the distance of the event with four different categories – Sprint (SP), Olympic/Standard (OS), 70.3/long course (LC) and Ironman (IM).
2. Club contribution including attendance at training, volunteer contribution and wearing of club kit.
3. You must have completed the nominated distance as an individual – not as part of a team.
4. Your category must be the appropriate age group category – not a “mates wave” or similar

The points awarded towards TOTY are based on the size of the event (member result with respect to the number of competitors in your category), and weighted by the distance of the event with four different categories – Sprint (SP), Olympic/Standard (OS), 70.3/long course (LC) and Ironman (IM).
