The British Triathlon Paratri Super Series offers paratriathletes from across Britain with dedicated racing opportunities and the chance to compete against other paratriathletes on a domestic front throughout the year.

Paratri Super series is open for all disabled athletes, regardless of whether they have a classification or not.  This opens up the racing and ensures that classification opportunities are not a barrier to competing in events and also offers those with non classifiable impairments the opportunity to compete.  Those athletes who are not classified will not be eligible for Super Series prizes but they will become eligible for any subsequent races if they are then classified.
