Tri stars score new clubhouse

The Logan Triathlon Club has a new home base at Underwood Park in Priestdale.

Division 1 Councillor Lisa Bradley says the ‘Logan Tri Club’ has taken up a sub-lease with Rochedale Tigers Rugby League Football Club for use of the grounds and a clubhouse.

‘I am delighted that our local triathletes can call Underwood Park home,’ Cr Bradley says.

‘Triathlon is an OIympic and Paralympic sport and who knows what dreams for the 2032 Games might be launched right here.’

Logan Tri Club President Darren Ryan says getting a place to call home is a ‘huge’ milestone for the club that began in the 1990s and today has more than 60 members of all ages.

‘We have never had a home base but now we can tell the public we are here, this is our base, come and join the fun,’ Darren says.

Although the summer triathlon season (swimming, cycling, running) is drawing to a close, the winter months will feature a focus on run training in preparation for the new season.
