TriNSW history

Help needed with TriNSW History – seeking old Tri magazines, minutes and anecdotes

Triathlon NSW is approaching 25 years!! Despite triathlon’s brief history, a lot of State information has been lost in flood damage at Old Sports House. With the racing season behind us, I'd like to update our website with relevant pieces of history. We have appointed John Smith as the Honorary Historian. He is gathering relevant information to help us celebrate our quarter century, including the following organisational history:

· Office Bearers

· Life Members

· Inaugural Clubs

· Club Champions

· State Champions - Sprint, Olympic, Duathlon, etc

· State Representatives

· Athlete of the Year, Clubman of Year, Volunteer of Year, etc

We realise this is not an overnight project. If any Members or enthusiasts have archived records (hard copy or electronic), I'd love to get my hands on them temporarily. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. The website records will be updated and presented to the wider community to indicate what a fantastic sport we are. After the records have been collected and published, we intend gathering anecdotes and other written/ photographic material to produce a historical manuscript (in booklet form perhaps). But that is another project, let's progress one step at a time. Please contact me ceo@trinsw.org.au if you can assist or you know a likely candidate with our history at their fingertips. Many thanks.
