The Paratriathlon World Class Programme remains unchanged at the podium level but World Champion Hannah Moore (PTS4) and Michael Taylor (PTS4) have been included at podium potential level after demonstrating their competitiveness with their respective Paralympic classifications.
Athletes selected on to the programmes are also able to access to world-class sports science and medicine services, and support from British Triathlon’s leading performance team.
British Triathlon Performance Director, Mike Cavendish, said: “It’s great to announce such strong athletes on to the triathlon and paratriathlon world class programmes for 2020.
“The past 12 months have been great for the sport; we have seen strong results from the Triathlon and Paratriathlon programmes and we know where we can improve ahead of next year’s Games.”
He concluded: “It’s important we all recognise UK Sport and the National Lottery as we strive towards success in Tokyo 2020. It’s the 25th anniversary of National Lottery and the impact it’s made to Olympic and Paralympic sport has been immeasurable.”
