A four-strong British team has been named for the European Triathlon Super and Relay Championships in Kitzbuhel, Austria from 18 – 20 June.

Sophie Coldwell and Gordon Benson lead out the teams having achieved top ten finishes at the World Triathlon Championship Series Yokohama and World Triathlon Cup Lisbon respectively.

Coldwell was the top British female finisher in Japan in the first World Triathlon Championship Series race of the season when she finished in sixth place.

Benson secured a sixth-place finish in Lisbon in his first race of the season taking on the likes of Kristian Blummenfelt (NOR) and Jonas Schomburg (GER) throughout the race.

Under 23 World silver medallist Olivia Mathias will join Coldwell on the start line in the women’s race in Austria. Mathias is fresh off the back of a second-place finish at the Sospan Super Sprint Triathlon Llanelli and will be looking to hone her skills during the AJ Bell 2021 World Triathlon Leeds race at the start of June.

Sam Dickinson will be lining up alongside Benson in the men’s race in what will be his first race since the 2020 World Triathlon Cup in Mooloolaba and before that the ETU Sprint Triathlon European Cup in Funchal in October 2019.  

Additional athletes may be added if further quota slots become available.
