Napa Valley Spring Athlete Guide

Your 2024 Athlete Guide is available HERE.

Along with our normal award categories, the following award categories will be featured for the Sprint and Olympic State Championship Races:

Top Three Age Group Finishers

USAT award certificates for the top three age group finishers for all female, male and non-binary five-year age groups, Clydesdale and Athena*, high school and Adaptive divisions included.

*Clydesdale and Athena divisions will be required to weigh-in at athlete check-in. This process is outlined in the USA Triathlon Clydesdale and Athena Divisions Amended Competition Rules (found on www.usatriathlon.org).

Club State Championship Awards

The following physical awards will be provided for club state championships:
a. 1st Overall Club (based on score – lowest score wins)
b. 1st Overall High School Club (based on score – lowest score wins)
c. Top Overall Club Participation (Highest participation number wins)

Scoring will follow standard cross-country scoring, in which the lowest point total among qualifying teams will be the winner. Each individual athlete will be scored in their respective age group, with 1st place = 1 point, 2nd place = 2 points, 3rd place = 3 points, etc. Every athlete in the club counts. All points are added up for each club, providing a total sum for all club athletes. This sum will then be divided by the total number of athletes participating per club to receive the club’s final score/average.

For example, if athlete A earns 1st place in their age group, athlete B earns 6th place in their age group, athlete C earns 1st place in their age group, athlete D earns 20th place in their age group, and athlete E earns 10th place in their age group – the clubs score would be calculated by: 1 + 6 + 1 + 20 + 10 =38/5 athletes = 7.6 points.

Tie Breakers: In the case of a tie, each of the tied teams will take their best 3 scoring athletes and average their scores. The team with the lowest average score will be awarded the higher place.

High School Division

The High School division will apply to the Sprint distance and will be divided into female, male and non-binary athletes. Athletes may not be split by age or high school class. High school athletes will start in the same wave.

Great timing & locations with Alpha Win!

Alpha Win is filling a void with both timing and its locations. They have brought races to some of the best places in the country and have finally given triathletes options.

Thank you for an incredible race experience.

That was my first full Ironman. I would not have wanted the experience any other way. Thank you for your efforts in keeping a small town race and treating everyone there like they were family! It was awesome!

I love Alpha Win events

I love Alpha Win events because not only are the events fun and well mapped out, with multiple volunteers and police to assist you (so you are safe and know exactly where you are going) but also because the staff is exceptional!  They are so helpful and friendly! I participated in the Alpha Win Tri Camp, the Lake George Triathlon, and the Saugerties Triathlon and definitely plan on participating in the same events and attending more this year!  I highly recommend and can't even express my gratitude to all the people that make these events possible!

Great races with a personalized feel!

Last season I raced the Lake George 70.3 and the Saugerties Triathlon (Sprint), and each event was like racing with friends. The Alpha Win team recognized me, and welcomed and encouraged me before and throughout each race. I often struggle to control my race day nerves but these races felt different - they were fun while still being challenging. As soon as I crossed the finish line in Lake George 2021, I made plans to enter for 2022 as my A-race for the season. I can't say enough good things about Alpha Win - I'm looking forward to another great race season!
