IABT / IABT Multisport Racing Youth & Junior Tri-Conference® / Expo*Event July 14 - 15, 2017 !!!

The IABT / IABT Multisport Racing Youth & Junior Tri-Conference® / Expo*Event is the 1st Youth and Junior Tri-Conference in the world and the first one held on an Historically black college and university (HBCU) campus! This event is DOUBLY Historical in nature.
​
Currently there are over 500,000 triathletes in the world (as of August, 2016) however less than 1% of that population are African Americans. One of the reasons why the sport has not grown for black youth and those living in urban communities remains a lack of awareness that multisport events exists as well as the opportunity available in the multisport industry.
​
The goal of the Conference is to unveil a pipeline of missed opportunities for all, especially black youth and those living in urban communities regarding multisport events and the multisport industry.
​
The conference is a weekend extravaganza! The Conference & Expo will be held on Saturday, July 14, 2018 on the campus of Morgan State University and then on Sunday, July 15, 2018, the Aquathon Splash N Dash Event plus 5K Run will take place in Dundalk, Maryland (YMCA).
​
The conference will consist of TRI Clinics and a Youth & Junior
Tri-Panel. Topic categories include but not limited to, Education, Health & Wellness, Workforce Development, Career & College Readiness, Personal Growth & Development and the Multisport Industry. The conference will feature five dual tracks, representing over 40 presentations on key topics for the advancement of those living in urban communities and black youth in the multisport industry and in life.
