Never tri-ed before
or keen to return to triathlon?
We invite you to come and check out the Port Macquarie Triathlon Club. We are an inclusive community, for all ages and abilities. Contact us if you have any questions or head along to one of our events.
Port Macquarie Triathlon Club (PMTC) is a family-friendly triathlon community that stages a variety of races in the Port Macquarie-Hastings locality. The Tri Club bases most of its activities in McInherney Park which is located on the Hastings River in Port Macquarie.
Options for all ages and abilities
Our Tri Club prides itself on its friendly and welcoming environment where new-comers, juniors and seasoned competitors are welcomed, challenged and encouraged to Come ‘n’ Tri. The Club’s Summer season generally consists of a dozen or so club races during the warmer months of September to May, with a mix of handicapped, graded and team events earning points towards our annual championship grade titles. A series of Aquathlons during January holidays and a winter duathlon series are also held.
Prefer to participate socially & not compete?
We also offer a popular “social grade” option for those wanting to have a go at triathlon, but aren’t interested in competing for club grade titles. This social level is designed to ease newcomers (or returning members) into the sport where no rules will be strictly applied other than those which keep you safe on the course. Social racers are welcome to bring flippers for the swim, skip the bike or run legs, or do whatever else makes you comfortable out there on the course!
Opportunities to attend a range of events
The Club also promotes attendance at a number of National events over a variety of distances from Sprint Triathlons up to Ironman distance. The Club is especially proud of its regular attendance at TriNSW Club Championships and encourages everyone to join in with our participation in the 2nd year of Hunter Interclub competition introduced by TriNSW. This will see rival north coast clubs accumulate points at a number of races to be held in nearby locations including South West Rocks, Yamba, Kingscliff, Ballina and Tweed Heads. The races for the Hunter interclub are Maitland, Newcastle, Stockton and Forster
If you’re looking for a welcoming, supportive, beautiful group of people to start your triathlon journey with, then Port Macquarie Triathlon Club is perfect.
They have developed a fantastic club culture & encourage anyone & everyone of all abilities to get involved.
The club has a lot of members with years of experience & knowledge that would inspire anyone to have a go.
