Committee
Role/Who | Biography |
Club President
John Fullerton |
I started 8 years ago doing BTC Friday night Swim Runs and have now worked my way up to competing (I use the term loosely) in all but Iron distance Triathlons. . I signed up to the Ballina Triathlon Club committee to try to make it better and attract more people into Triathlon and back to the club that got me started. This year I hope to help improve on the delivery of all club events, to encourage more people to come along and have a go and to help grow the club into something better. Hopefully I will see you there. Be careful though, Triathlon is highly addictive!! |
Vice President
Kim Churchill |
Kim Churchill is a local girl who did a bit of study and alot of travelling before returning home to Ballina. After spending some competitive years training and competing in Brisbane in her 20s she now prefers to enjoy the more social relaxed side of triathlon here at Ballina Triathlon club. This means she appreciates the many different attitudes and approaches to the world of triathlon. Her role on the committee is Media and Communications with both members and the larger community. Looking forward to bringing a fresh face to Ballina Tri committee and hoping to encourage new and existing members to get out there and just have fun while getting fit at the same time. |
Secretary Kelly Williams |
Kelly joined the committee as secretary this year. She’s happy competing in anything from Park Run to Ironman. She has many years of racing and training experience and is a valuable asset to our team. |
Treasurer
Max McGovern |
Max has been racing both at club events and other Triathlon events but more recently his interests have turned to X-Triathlon or Off-Road Triathlon. Max competed in State and National Championships this year and is looking forward to Hooking in again this coming season. Max does a great job looking after the Clubs finances. |
Sub-Committee
Steve Gasbarrone |
