FAQ's:
What is a Triathlon?
A triathlon is a multi-sport event involving a swim, followed by a bike ride, and ending with a run. The length of each leg is the distance specified next to the ticket type.
What is STANDARD Club Membership?
Standard Club Members are those who have chosen the STANDARD option when signing up or renewing their Triathlon WA Membership. This choice provides comprehensive insurance coverage for both racing and training activities.
Do I need a Club Membership to participate?
Not at all! Select the 'General Entry' option. We will provide a one-day insurance cover for your race, ensuring your coverage during the event. This is why we require a race entry fee.
If you’re already a member of another club, you can join Busselton as a second club without paying the insurance fee again and race FREE at our club events. This will be discounted at the checkout
What ages are the TRYstars programs suitable for?
This is a FUN event for kid's aged 5-12 years. Kid's ideally will need to be able to ride unaided without the use of training wheels.
What equipment is needed?
A bike, a helmet and running shoes.
Please arrive at least 20 minutes before the start time to ensure you have enough time to register, set up their bike/run equipment and listen to a briefing so they know what to do.

TRYstars
Event Details:
TRYstars will start at 8.30am
- Location: Bike racks and the registration tent are on the grassed area between the Youth Centre and the skate park, east of the Busselton Jetty.
- Safety: TRYstars will have their race number written on their left hand for safety. After finishing, please remind your child to visit the desk so we can mark them off and confirm they’re safe.
- Post-Race: Fruit will be available for the kids to enjoy.
Volunteers Needed:
Any parents who can assist with guiding turns and managing foot traffic on the course would be greatly appreciated. Please see Christine in the morning if you’re able to help.
Important Notes:
- Encourage your child to stay left at all times while running and riding (and when they should use their bell) and to be mindful of pedestrians as the path is shared and can be busy in the morning.
- If the designated age-category distance feels too far for your child, they are welcome to drop down to a shorter distance. Please let us know during registration.
- Swimming is optional. If your child doesn’t want to swim, they can walk along the beach, stay in the shallows, or wait at the swim exit to continue with the bike leg. Swims will only be waist-deep, so children can stand at all times.
TRYstars Distances:
- Under 7s: 25m SWIM / 1km RIDE / 250m RUN - There will be earlier turns to align with TWA rules for both the bike and run leg.
- 7–9yrs: 50m SWIM / 2km RIDE / 500m RUN - TRYstars will ride 1 km down the path to complete the 2 km bike leg and one lap of the run course.
- 10–12yrs: 75m SWIM / 4km RIDE / 1km RUN - TRYstars will complete two laps of the bike leg and two laps of the run leg.
All TRYstars will remain on the path throughout the event – no road sections, and volunteers will be stationed at all turns to assist.
We look forward to seeing you in the morning and having a fantastic morning!
Over 7's carry on down the path another 500m - there will be a volunteer to guide them at both turns :)
Over 10's will complete two laps of the bike course
Over 10's will complete two laps of the run course
