    Age Requirements

    USA Triathlon Competitive Rule 3.2a Athletes compete in the age group corresponding to their age on December 31 of the event year e.g. if your child is 10 years old on the day of the race, but turns 11 before the end of the calendar year, your child will race as an 11 year old. Any child who is 14 on race day, but will turn 15 before the end of the calendar year, is ineligible to race. Correspondence will not be entered into.

    Insurance
    Your child must be a member of USA Triathlon to compete in the race, including each relay member. If you do not have a current USAT Annual membership card, please Visit the USA Triathlon site to obtain one for $5 (and then print it your membership card enter your number during registration).


    The Mini Mossman Youth Triathlon is part of the TOUGHKids Race Series. All top 3 boys and girls in each specific age will qualify for the TOUGHKids Championship at Croton Point Park, Croton-on-Hudson, NY on September 8th, 2012.

    TOUGHKids Championship Series

    The series consists of four youth triathlons. The TOUGHKids 2012 qualifiers:
    TOUGHKids Ridgefield, CT - June 2nd,
    TOUGHKids Black Bear Lake at NJ - June 30th
    TOUGHKids Mini Mossman, Norwalk, CT - July 14th
    TOUGHKids Westpoint, NY - Aug 11th
    Then the series Championship race takes place at the TOUGHKids Triathlon in Croton, NY on September 8th. At the Championship race, there will be a "Champions Wave" - an elite wave that leads each age-group pack by 3 minutes. This wave is by invitation only. The Championship race has open registration for the first 300 kids. Open registration means that your child will go off in the larger age group wave (not part of the "Champions Wave"). Once 300 slots have filled, the only way to race TOUGHKids is by qualifying in the top 3 of your age at one of the races in the series (e.g. if you are an 11 year old boy, you must be a top 3 finisher of all the 11 year old boys in that race).

    Qualifier Slots

    Upon completion of one of the three qualifying summer races, you will be notified by email that you have earned a slot to the elite wave at the TOUGHKids Championship Race in September if you finished in a top 3 position in your specific age. Invitations will be sent approximately 2 weeks after each race. You will be given a registration code to allow you
    to register in the event that the TOUGHKids race has sold out.

    There are no discounts provided and you are expected to have a valid USAT Youth Membership card to participate. You will be placed in the "Champions Wave" and receive a different cap color than the rest of your age group. There is no obligation to use this qualifying slot, but note that the registration code is non-transferable. Invitations are the same for each event: 66 per event.
    The slots will be divided per age group:
    9 Boys / 9 Girls age 4-6
    12 Boys / 12 Girls age 7-10
    12 Boys / 12 Girls age 11-14.
