By laura@europe.triathlon.org | 16 Jun, 2021


We are more than happy to announce the confirmation of the Europe Triathlon Cup and Junior Cup Balikesir, Turkey. The event was due to take place for the first time in 2020 but was cancelled for the pandemic. It will finally take place for the first time on 31 July. There will be a race for the juniors and one for the elite both on a sprint distance. The Europe Triathlon Team, with athletes for NFs in our Development Programme, will also take part in the elite race.

The Europe Triathlon Junior Cup Riga has been taking place since 2014. The first 2 editions were an elite event and since 2016 the race has been a junior Cup. In 2020 the event was one of the few that took place. However, back then the venue moved to a natural park while in 2021 the event’s venue will be in the same location as in the 2016 to 2019 editions.

We are really looking forward to these wonderful events! See you there!
