Team Diabetes Special Offer:

Come and experience the challenge of a lifetime!  Team Diabetes has 24 spots in Subaru Ironman in beautiful Penticton, British Columbia.  Most triathletes compete in an event of this calibre to fulfill a lifelong dream - doing it on behalf of the Canadian Diabetes Association enhances their experience and helps raise awareness about diabetes prevention and management.

Team Diabetes is the sports fundraising program for the Canadian Diabetes Association in which participants promote a healthy, active lifestyle and raise funds to fight diabetes.  Our participants come from all walks of life, from the first-time triathlete to the seasoned Ironman.  Join our team and enjoy the benefits of our Team Diabetes package - free race registration including Carbo Meal and Awards Banquet admittance, a custom Team Diabetes two-piece tri suit by Sugoi, and roundtrip economy airfare or 5 nights’ accommodation in Penticton. http://www.diabetes.ca/Section_donations/TeamDiabetesIronman.asp

In 2005, athletes and Trisport together raised over, $500 for the Canadian Cancer Society. Through the sale of Together. Strong Bracelets we not only contributed to the CCS but helped celebrate the lives of some very dear friends and colleuges who recently passed away from this terrible disease.


With the ever growing demands for avenues to raise money for charities, Trisport would like to continue to support such ventures by extending the opportunity for athletes to use the Subaru Triathlon Series as your fundraising vehicle. What this means is, Trisport will support any athlete that wants to use a triathlon/duathlon as their attainable goal to raise funds.

If you forward a statement pertaining to you charity and goal it will be placed on the charities section on the website.

In 2002 one particular athlete raised over $30,000.00 in training and participating at the Northern Triathlon. If you have any further questions or idea’s feel free to contact Trisport.
