Britcon is proud to announce its continued sponsorship of the Britcon Triathlon Race Team, powered by Off That Couch Fitness (OTCF). Now in its seventh consecutive year of support, Britcon remains committed to backing local sporting talent and promoting health and wellbeing both within the community and across its workforce.
The race team is made up of dedicated athletes from the Lincolnshire area and boasts an impressive list of achievements, including:
- Multiple Kona Ironman qualifiers
- Top 10 overall Ironman finishers
- British Age Group Triathlon Champions
- European Age Group Triathlon, Duathlon and Quadrathlon Champions
- Ultra-marathon winners
- Extreme triathlon competitors
Since becoming the team’s main sponsor in 2016, Britcon has helped OTCF grow year on year, enabling athletes to compete both nationally and internationally while balancing their sporting ambitions with professional careers.
Steve Clark, Team Manager and Founder of OTCF, commented:
“We are delighted that Britcon has committed to supporting our talented race team for the seventh year running. Without this support, many of our athletes would not be able to compete at the level they do outside of their working lives.”
Nick Shepherd, Managing Director of Britcon, added:
“We are proud to continue our support for the team and celebrate their incredible success both in the UK and abroad. Our sponsorship helps these athletes pursue their professional ambitions in the triathlon arena and beyond, and we’re excited to see what they achieve next.”
In addition to renewing its sponsorship, Britcon is working with OTCF and its internal Health & Wellbeing Champions alongside external partners Vitality and Westfield Health to develop a personalised health and wellbeing programme for employees and their families. The initiative will be hosted on Britcon’s intranet and will include:
- Healthy eating plans
- Exercise routines
- Lifestyle tips to support physical and mental wellbeing
This dual commitment to elite sport and everyday wellness reflects Britcon’s broader values around community engagement, employee wellbeing and social responsibility.
