World Triathlon

World Triathlon, governed by the International Triathlon Union (ITU), is the global organization responsible for overseeing the sport of triathlon and its related disciplines. It establishes the rules, organizes international competitions, and promotes the sport worldwide.

The World Triathlon manages major events like World Championships and Series, fostering competitive standards and growth of the sport across different countries and age groups.
