FULL STATE SERIES POLICY

ELIGIBILITY

An athlete’s racing age, and therefore age group, is determined by date of birth and age as at 31 December 2024, in line with the AusTriathlon race competition rules. Standard or Premium members of AusTriathlon and Triathlon Western Australia (including non-club members) will be eligible to participate in the WA State Series events and earn points throughout the season. Points will be awarded to the top ten finishers in each age category (male and female) at each State Series ranking race, and athletes can accumulate points throughout the season to compete for the Triathlete of the Year (TOTY) Awards, which will be presented at the Triathlon WA Annual Awards.

WA-Based members of nationally affiliated Clubs TriMob and ADF Triathlon Club are eligible for State Series points, provided their membership profile aligns them with Western Australia. Basic and Social AusTriathlon members, members of other States, and one day licence holders / non-members are not eligible for any State Series / TOTY points.

Current financial Standard and Premium Triathlon WA members participating in State Series events will automatically be eligible for points, and no registration or enrolment is required. Athletes must register/sign up for each event with the same name and membership as per their membership profile. In the instance where an athlete uses a different name or does not add their membership number (TA number) to their entry, they may not receive points. The Athlete’s Standard or Premium membership must be current at the time of membership checking of the start list (the Thursday prior to race), and they must race the correct distance for their State Series Age Category at the nominated State Series races.

JUNIOR STATE SERIES

The Junior State Series comprises a number of races specifically selected for junior triathletes aged 12 to 19 years of age. For each Junior State Series event, points will be awarded to the top ten (10) eligible TWA members in each junior age group. An athlete’s best three (3) results from the State Series events will be considered.

For an athlete to be eligible for Triathlete of the Year awards and final leader board placing, they must have competed in a minimum of three (3) state series races. Athletes who do not start (DNS), do not finish (DNF), or are disqualified (DSQ) receive 0 points and that event will not count toward minimum participation.

Overall Junior Triathlete of the Year Awards will be given to the three highest point-scoring male and female triathletes in each Junior age group on the State Series leader board.

OPEN STATE SERIES

Athletes wishing to be considered for the Open Triathlete of the Year awards may accumulate points only in events in which they competed in that category. The Open category is available for any athlete aged 16 years or older (as at 31 December 2024) who is ready to step up to a more elite level and begin racing in the Open field.

If an athlete begins the season racing Open, they must continue to race Open for the remainder of the season and will not be able to accrue any age group points at all.

If an athlete begins the season racing Age Group, they may move up to Open at any time during the season. However, once an athlete elects to race in the Open Category, especially if it is done mid-season, they must continue to race Open for the remainder of the season and will not be able to accrue any further points in their age group category. Should they happen to qualify for an award in both their age group and Open categories, they will automatically forfeit their age group award and will only be eligible for an Open award.

An athlete’s best three (3) results from the State Series events will be considered. To be eligible for Triathlete of the Year awards, an athlete must have competed in a minimum of three (3) State Series races. Athletes who do not start (DNS), do not finish (DNF) or are disqualified (DSQ) receive 0 points and the race will not count toward minimum participation.

Awards are given for Open Triathlete of the Year. These awards are presented to the three (3) highest point-scoring male and female athletes in the Open category.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS

Some State Series events will also hold State Championship Status, meaning athletes can be crowned State Champion of that discipline for the season. Please refer to the rules for each of the Junior, Age Group and Open State Series for specific information about which distances hold status.

STAND ALONE STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS:
Multisport events (duathlon, aquathlon, x-tri) will no longer be part of the State Series point scores, and instead will be standalone State Championship events. This means multisport does not contribute to Triathlete of the Year point scores, but still offers athletes the chance to be crowned State Champion of that discipline for the season.

Aquathlon

Due to the separation of Multisport State Championships and the State Series ranking races / Triathlete of the Year points, an Age Group athlete is allowed to compete in the Open category at the Duathlon, Aquathlon and Cross Triathlon State Championships. By doing so, they can compete for incentives without affecting their standing on the State Series Leaderboard. However, they are still eligible to race in their Age Group for other State Series events and accumulate points.

POINTS

For each State Series ranking race, points are awarded to the first ten (10) eligible Triathlon WA members in the category as per the accompanying table:
