The London Region has worked with clubs and event organisers to establish a series of events for children. The events in the series go towards determing the London Region's Champions for each childrens age group as well as the Squad to represent London at the Inter Regional Championship (IRC's) at the end of August 2013.
The Tristar & Youth Series 2013 is open to anyone who is a member of a London triathlon club, resides or goes to school in London. There are five categories:
Tristarts - 8 years old
Tristar 1 – 9/10 years old
Tristar 2 – 11/12 years old
Tristar 3 – 13/14 years old
Youth – 15/16 years old
London Region Tristar & Youth Series 2013 Races are grouped:
| Group A | Hillingdon Duathlon | 5th May 2013 |
| Crystal Palace | 19th May 2013 | |
| Trinity Tri | 30th June 2013 | |
| Eton Dorney | 7th July 2013 | |
| Group B | Optima Aquathlon | 11th May 2013 |
| Hatch End Triathlon | 12th May 2013 | |

Places in the series are decided by points from best 2 Group A races and best Group B result.
Points - All athletes are awarded points based on a percentage of the 1st London athlete time for their category. E.g. First London athlete is 20 minutes and gets 1000 points. Second London athlete is 22 minutes gets 909 points. (20/22 x 1000 = 909) and so on. This is different to previous years as we are only counting London athlete results.
Awards ceremony – November/December 2013
It is the responsibility of the athlete to enter their races through the relevant entry process for each race. Race organisers DO NOT reserve places for the series, so once a race is full or deadline for entries is reached the athlete will not be able to participate at that event.
