Dear Triathlon Canada Members,

With the launch of our 2025-2029 Strategic Plan, our team at Triathlon Canada have begun the hard work to achieve the aspirational goals outlined within our strategic pillars:

  • Elite Performance – Empowering Canadian athletes and coaches to reach the podium at the highest levels of international competition.
  • Development Pathways – Building a robust, inclusive system that nurtures talent and unlocks potential at every stage of the journey.
  • Community Foundations – Growing a safe, welcoming sport environment where everyone—of every age and ability—feels they belong.

As we move into an exciting period for our sport in Canada, it is essential that we ensure our team has the continued capacity to lead on critical programs and events that supports the growth and quality of experience within our sport. These priorities include:

  • Protecting our community by ensuring best-practice Safe Sport measures are always in place, giving athletes, coaches, and parents confidence in a safe sporting environment.
  • Grow participation by expanding our new Kids & Youth programs, including 1-2-TRI-GO Canada! and Kids of K-OS, which will introduce the next generation to triathlon in fun and accessible ways.
  • Elevate experiences for our National Age Group Team, providing greater year-round support as we prepare to host over 800 Canadian athletes on home soil at the 2027 World Triathlon Multisport Championships in Edmonton.

After extensive consultation and deliberation, the Triathlon Canada team and Board of Directors has determined that now is the time to increase our annual membership fee to ensure we have the resources and capacity that will drive us forward in achieving our mission in the coming years. The current fee of $15 and $6 for adults and kids & youth respectively has been in place since 2018 and we are confident a modest increase will ensure the sustainability and growth of our services and programs into the future.

At the recent Triathlon Canada Annual General Meeting, the Triathlon Canada Board of Directors and Provincial Sport Organizations have approved the following increase to the Triathlon Canada Annual Membership Fee effective from October 1st which, as always, will be incorporated into each Provincial Sport Organization’s annual membership:

  • 2026 Season: $20 Adults / $8 Kids & Youth

This fee update is an investment in the future of triathlon in Canada and will contribute to building the capacity necessary to protect, support and inspire our community. By coming together to support this change, our community is ensuring that athletes today, and the generations to come, have access to safe, inspiring, and unforgettable triathlon experiences.

Thank you for standing with us as we build a stronger, more sustainable future for our sport.
