24/7 Fitness Club, Malta largest chain of gyms and fitness centres, has one again teamed up with Triathlon Malta to assist and help the younger generation of Maltese triathletes in their triathlon journey. In fact, for the second consecutive year, 24/7 Fitness Club will be the sponsoring the youths and children multisport races all throughout the 2019 season.

For over 15 years, 24/7 Fitness Club has been one of the local leaders in wellness and fitness. At present they manage six fully equipped clubs which are located strategically all around Malta in Ta' Qali, Mellieha, St. Paul's Bay, San Gwann, Santa Lucija, and the latest introduction at Haz-Zebbug. They pride themselves as being leading innovators by being the first to implement the 24/7 opening hours policy and by having physiotherapists as part of the team, with free group classes and advocating training ethics within all the six outlets.

This will be the second consecutive year that 24/7 Fitness Club will be supporting the young triathletes of Triathlon Malta, following a successful season of events and series last year. The young athletes, raging from 6 years to 16 years coming from the Malta Youth Triathlon Academy - MYTA take part in multisport races all throughout the season and collect points for their performances. More than 50 young triathletes take part as they are divided into 4 different categories according to age. Apart from that, MYTA athletes had various sessions at the fitness centre of Ta' Qali throughout the winter months in preparation for their summer races.

Commenting this sponsorship agreement, Cyprian Dalli, President of Triathlon Malta and Chairperson of MYTA stated that 'We have nothing but deep gratitude to the people behind 24/7 Fitness club for this renewed support and assistance. We are proud to have teamed up with the best in the field and we are very glad that we have such a positive collaboration with everyone at 24/7. We are happy to have them during our races and they are happy to have our budding triathletes at their clubs! We thank all the team, Thomas, Ryan, Sasha, Tasha and especially Frankie Gauci who believe in our projects and support us always. True to their motto, they surely are making a positive change in the lives of our young triathletes!. '
