Triathlon

WORLD’S BEST

The NSWIS Triathlon Program is dedicated to nurturing and developing talented triathletes, providing comprehensive support for success at the Olympic Games and benchmark events. Notable among its athletes is Lauren Parker, the most decorated NSWIS triathlete, who has won three world championships and an Paralympic silver medal at the Tokyo 2020 Games, inspiring aspiring Para triathletes with her determination and resilience.

Other successful athletes to emerge from the program include Aaron Royle, Jonathan Goerlach, and Ryan Bailie, among others, who have made significant contributions to triathlon. These athletes have showcased their talent and achieved remarkable success, further adding to the legacy of the NSWIS triathlon program.

Moving to somewhere with medical support, with strength support, and nutrition makes you feel completely supported when you stand on the line before a race. So, being a member of NSWIS has been really positive for me. Triathlon is a really individual sport, but to be able to succeed at it, you need a team of people, and you need experts in their field. And it’s very rare [for an athlete] to be able to walk into a room like at the Narrabeen hub and have everything at your fingertips. I think that is really important in my career.
