The winning Club/s can receive the inaugural Ken Baggs Cup.
Ken Baggs OAM was instrumental in the creation of IRONMAN in Australia, working in the region for 30 years (1984-2014). He was one of the original members of the organizing committee for the inaugural IRONMAN Australia race in 1985, becoming the race director in 1987. He also founded IRONMAN Western Australia and served as the race director for both races until 2012. Baggs is considered an integral part of the early team responsible for establishing rules, safety and operation procedures globally as IRONMAN was growing from a single race in Hawai`i to events worldwide. Ken (and his wife Glendy) were also instrumental in the early days of the famous Husky Triathlon, from its humble beginnings in 2006 with 325 athletes to the present day with over 6000 athletes and as many spectators.
