Road To Nationals – Youth and Junior!

Hi, my name is Hector L Torres. I am the Head Coach for Tri Peak Athlete and Central Florida Tri Club. I have been working with Intellectual Impaired athletes for  five years ago to start the Triathlon sport. It has grown so much, and we made a tremendous impact that the Intellectual Impaired Division was implemented in the Triathlon Sport. It will be showcased in the Zone3 2022 USA Triathlon Youth and Junior National Championship in West Chester, Ohio on July 30 – 31, 2022. 

Many of these families don’t have enough funds to cover the cost of travel, registration, lodging and meals. Therefore, I have applied for grants and now creating a gofundme page. If you can help in any shape or form to offset the cost, they will greatly appreciate it. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
