Frequently Asked Questions
Why were these races selected?
Triathlon Australia and Tasmania stakeholders have identified events that are safe and have a strong reputation in the triathlon community. The 2023/24 State Series provides quality courses in all regions of the state and is inclusive for all ages.
How do I determine my age category?
These age groups are determined by date of birth as of 31 December 2023.
Do I need to let TA know which races I am competing in?
No, Triathlon Australia will be working with the race directors to ensure all Tasmanian members results are sent to the Triathlon Australia state office for point allocation.
How long after a race will the point score come out?
The race directors have a one-week time frame to send all results to the Triathlon Australia state office. The Triathlon Australia state office will then aim to have the point score up two weeks after the race.
If there is an issue with my result or placing, who do I contact?
All timing issues must go to the race organiser immediately after the event, within 30 minutes of the final race. Once the race results have been received by the Triathlon Australia state office, the places will stand. If you find an error in the State Series Leader Board, please contact shellie.casalegno@triathlon.org.au
If there is an issue with my point allocation on the Tasmanian website, who do I contact?

What happens if an event is cancelled?

Is there a series registration?
No, to enter the series you just need to register through the event’s website and be an active standard or premium Triathlon Australia member that lives in Tasmania. Make sure you register in the correct race category so you can earn points.
How do I know which race category to compete in?
This can be found in the Events & Categories section of the State Series Rules on the website.
How do I register for an event?
State Series Races are run by Clubs & Event Directors, who have their own registration systems. You must register via the Event’s website. Links can be found on our website. Any queries regarding event registration should be directed to each Club or Event Director.
If I do not race the required distance, can I still earn points?
You are welcome to race any distance, (pending age to comply with the race competition rules). However, the distances are set for the distances for each age group to compete at the distance to earn points and compete for championship honours.
