Tetrathlon Championships

The Tetrathlon Championships will take place at Hartpury College Gloucestershire and GL1 Leisure Centre on 21st-23rd August 2012.  If you would like more information or would like to volunteer, please contact Sally Lawton (sally@pcuk.org) for more details.

Last year we piloted, with great success, a mentoring programme to run alongside the Tetrathlon Championships at Hartpury College.  The programme is kindly sponsored by NFU Mutual and Ariat Clothing and uses ex-Olympic and World Class Pentathletes who work as Mentors and Role Models. The Mentors combine their own experience with Mentoring Cards, to support the Tetrathletes competing at the Championships through the emotional aspects of performing when it counts.

Mentor topics for this year will cover

  • Winning Habits
  • Working with nerves
  • Working through setbacks
  • Being best prepared

Mentors for 2012 are:

  • Kate Allenby MBE- Former Spooners and West Dartmoor Pony Club Member, 2 times Tetrathlon Championships winner and bronze medal winner at the Olympic Games in Modern Pentathlon
  • Emily Bright- Former Member of the Old Surrey & Burstow, medal winner at Junior and Senior World Championship Level in Modern Pentathlon and now competes in Iron Man Triathlon
