The Ambassador Series

is TRISudbury returning to what it does best. In our early years we developed an envied reputation for support and encouragement of all at local events. In 2023 we developed the Ambassador Series, the brain child of Club Ambassadors Mark Smith and Lindsay Hobden.

The series is specifically designed to enable members of the club to target a small number of predetermined local events in the knowledge that their club mates and supporters will also be present with the famous TRISudbury spirit of support and healthy club competition. The chosen events include a range of distances and will enable our coaching team to prepare programs to specifically target each event as apart of our regular training schedule.

Each member’s top three results from the six race series will be used to assess and recognise a series winner at the club’s annual ball and award ceremony, any combination of events or distances permissible.

All you need to do is select, enter and attend your events and, where possible, come and support your fellow members at those events you do not plan to race. We look forward to seeing the Red and Black army out in force at these events.
