Overview

Get ready to rally your teammates – the 2027 Explore Worldwide NSW Triathlon Club Championships are rolling back into fantastic Forster on Saturday 20 February, and we want you on the start line. It’s the ultimate team weekend: fast racing, big energy, and the kind of club spirit that makes this event a highlight every season.

Explore Worldwide NSW Triathlon Club Champs is your chance to show up, get involved, and be part of the biggest club race in NSW. Expect plenty of fierce batters, the best sideline support and cheering you’ll get at any race, and plenty of memories made – both on and off the course.

And the weekend doesn’t end there. Spend social time with your club on Saturday evening at the presentation event and, on Sunday, Run Forster offers distances for every level – perfect for a shakeout run after Saturday’s racing or a chance to be cheer squad for those jumping in and joining the fun.

Lock it in, gather your teammates, and represent your club. Forster is calling – we can’t wait to see you on the start line!

The action doesn’t stop there — the following day features Explore Worldwide Run Forster, with a variety of race distances to suit everyone. It’s a perfect chance for recovery after the Club Championships or for your support team to join in the fun and take part themselves.
