Despite the Australian Champs & MultiSport Festival being scheduled almost twelve months in advance, this very difficult decision has had to be made due to the 2017 NSW Triathlon Club Championships being scheduled on the same weekend in regional NSW. Due to the nature of the Club Championships it would be impossible to have two triathlon events planned on the same weekend in New South Wales and for them both to be a success.
Unfortunately, prior to the announcement from Triathlon NSW on Friday 30th September 2016 no communication about the possible rescheduling or relocation of this event in regional NSW was received.
Since the announcement in October, every effort has been made to avoid this decision including:
The announcement is especially disappointing after the amazing 2016 Snowy Mountains ITU Cross Triathlon World Championships also held at Lake Crackenback Resort & Spa. We love bringing competitors and fans to the Snowy Mountains area to enjoy this spectacular region. We are saddened to have to cancel an event that brings so much joy to competitors and especially the local community who have provided such overwhelming support for the event.
For those who have already entered events on this weekend a full refund will be made back to your credit card in the next three weeks.
We deeply apologise for any disappointment from this announcement. We are extremely upset that we have had to make this decision as the annual championships are something that we look forward to and anticipate each season.
The In2Adventure team are truly sorry for this unfortunate news, and hopefully we look forward to the opportunity to welcome you to our next TreX event at the Qld Cross Triathlon Championships & MultiSport Festival on the 11th & 12th of February, 2017 on Queensland’s spectacular Sunshine Coast. Find out more here or at another event in the future.
