ETU Junior Cup - Juniors impress in Nottingham

One Step Beyond, British Triathlon and the National Water Sports Centre hosted the best young triathletes in the country with the British Triathlon U20’s Festival, including the Inter Regional Championships and the European Triathlon Union Junior Cup on Friday 22 August.

Racing in draft legal format, the quality of triathlon racing and professionalism from youth and junior athletes was incredible! The East Midlands came through as the Inter Regional Champions, with last year’s winner, North West in second and South West in third.

The winners in the ETU Junior Cup came from Italy and Germany, but Britain won the silver and bronze medals in both the male and female races. Well done to GB’s Kate Curran, Megan McDonald, James Teagle and Chris Perham. And of course well done to the winners, Luisa Longa-Prat of Italy and Jannik Schaufler from Germany. It was a pleasure to host junior athletes from all over Europe, we hope you all enjoyed the race!
