TROWBRIDGE-based Ben Psaila completed a clean sweep at the Calne Aquathlon Series this weekend by winning his third title and the series outright.

Psaila, represented Team Proto-Col Multisport and his regiment the Royal Signals, only started training with his new team in January.

Since teaming up with Team Proto-Col, the youngster has been shaving time off his previous personal best efforts.

And the win seemed to come as a bit of a surprise for Psaila.

He said: “I entered the Spring Series as a monthly race test to see how my fitness was progressing towards the 2018 triathlon season.

“Since starting to train with Team Proto-Col, I have seen my times tumble and I am delighted with the way my performance is developing.

“To win all three races and the series shows I am in really good shape, so I’m excited for the season ahead.”

Team Proto-Col’s junior academy is now working towards success in their first major open water event at the end of June.

The LPS Events Bowood Triathlon will follow a series of open water coaching sessions for juniors aged eight and above.

With the aim of building confidence, the sessions will be led by experienced open water coaches in a managed lake environment.

The first session takes place on Sunday, June 3.
