Does anyone know someone who wants to race for Team Canada (a Canadian)? I have registered but now can't go due to an unavoidable conflict. No refunds - but they will let me transfer my registration to any age group (or gender) as long as its before April 9 the uniform order deadline.
Is a spot at worlds is available for transfer to anyone else oir do you have to have done a qualifying spot?
You don't have to qualify at this point if spots are available in your AG. They had a open registration period for anyone - which is now closed. Qualifiers got first dibs on spots last fall...then they gradually broadened the registration options. Triathlon Canada is longer taking new registrations but will allow transfers.
Message me if you are interested.
Wow, this implies the qualiyy of the Canada team is not real high? In the US, you have to qualify and no transfers.
Canada is the host country so there are 25 spots per age group compared to the usual 10. I think the top spots filled up quickly with qualifiers. But I have never raced ITU World Championships before so that is just my understanding.
My experience is a county gets 18 slots normally? I know the US does. But, if one is the host county, yep, one gets 25.
But, when the US is the host county, even with 25 slots, it does not change you still have to qualify the same way. And the US has never ever had full teams
no matter where the race is.
So to hear over the years Canada seems to have a process that allows anyone who want to go to be able to sign up? Oh well, it helps keeps the costs down
and folks slow or fast do not impact how I race.
