Your age for all 7 races in the series is the age you are as of 31/12/2011.

Race your mates!
If you wish to toe the line with your mate/s or your arch rival to race side by side, it's possible to enter a mate’s wave in the Gatorade QTS Triathlon. Choose category MW (Mate Wave) and battle it out. This is a fun/social category, and is not awarded medals or series points.

First Timer Kool Kids Triathlon
If your child is new to triathlon, or is a little unsure of competing against competitive kids - this is the category for your child! After a couple of races your child will be ready to progress into their own age category in The Courier-Mail Kool Kids Triathlon. Please note that no series points are awarded to this category to ensure that the category is used for first-timers only and does not become competitive.

Teams
Come along and join the fun of the Gatorade Queensland Tri Series without having to complete the whole course yourself. Teams can be made up of 2 or 3 people.

Clydesdales
The chance for the guys to race against people their own size not their age - two categories available (90-99kg & 100+kg). This year watch out for the weigh-in at presentations!

Series Points
