Hello OxfordTri Family,
I hope that you’ve had a nice week and managed to get out and enjoy the lovely weather today. I’ve been at the Cowley Carnival all day and its been amazing, we definitely need an OxfordTri stall there next year!
I recognise that things have been quite quiet lately on a club front, there is lots going on behind the scenes as we are excited to share some of these things soon!
We will be meeting as a committee this Monday (2nd of September) we are going to be discussing the results of the survey and what this means for us as a club going forward. If you didn’t get the chance to complete the survey but have something that you would like to say please get in touch with us via committee@oxfordtri.co.uk
God Bless

This will involve the opportunity to swim as part of our normal OxfordTri Wednesday Night Social Swim 6:30-7:30pm. With the Burgers and Beers served from 7:30 (dietary requirements and a selection of non-alcoholic drinks will be provided).
***Please email any dietary requirements to Graceë Gilbert (ge.gilbert@hotmail.com)***
The cost is £10 per person and this will include a minimum of 1 burger and 2 beverages (non alcoholic available).
This year we are using a ticketed system to try and speed up the serving system and to enable us to better gauge the quantities of food and drink for the evening. Tickets are limited so if you know you can make it, please do buy them as soon as possible.
Tickets can be purchased here – https://www.oxfordtri.uk/product/11thsept/
Deadline for buying tickets will be 10pm on the 8th of September after this point we will not be able to guarantee that you will be able to get food/drink.
We would love for friends and family to join us and on this occasion, they will be able to join in the 6:30-7:30pm swim as long as they are an adult, can swim 400m unaided, have the correct kit (Tow Float and Bright Swim Cap) and have completed our Open Water Guest Form (this enables us to store ICE details)

OxfordTri Cross Country Team Manager
The cross country season is often a highlight for many of our OxfordTri members. This year we are looking for someone to step into the role of Team Manager which used to be help by Kelly. The main responsibility of this role is to act as a point of contact between the club and the cross country league organisers. This means sharing entries etc. If you would be interested in finding out more about this role, or are interested in helping out do get in touch.
We have attached the league manual which has been recently released to help give a more information (see below)
