Multisport Malta has been brewing since 2020! That's 4 years of building a purposeful academy with all the assets it needs to start off professionally. So what is so special about this?
Heading the team is Coach Lara, whilst assisting in coaching and bike technicalities is Coach Jorgen! Supporting the project are the team of XTERRA Malta
Multisport Malta is headed by Coach Lara, A Masters Degree Graduate in International Sport coaching, UCI level 2 certified coach, an XTERRA Certified coach and a 2nd year student for a PhD in Sport Coaching, specifically in high performance coaching. Lara's passion for coaching knowledge and experience is unquestionable.
Lara has raced several XTERRA races as an Elite athlete, including multiple XTERRA world Championships. She has also raced several road triathlons including major events such as European championships, and road cycling international tours. Her experience as an athlete is diverse and ranges all over the globe in cycling and triathlon.
Assisting is Coach Jorgen, a Swedish Mountain biking athlete coming from a background of air rifle shooting and coaching. Jorgen's expertise in technical mountain biking and bike mechanics makes this duo a perfect small, yet passionate team
In building the academy, Lara has been supported by the amazing team of XTERRA Malta, who have tirelessly shown us they know their stuff!
From their first triathlons, first swims, first half ironman finishes, we have seen a lot of very happy smiles, boosted moral and self-confidence personal bests!
In August 2022, Multisport Malta (then known as XTERRA Malta Academy) had its first athlete, Alex, finish her first ever full XTERRA race, which turned out to be her first ever Olympic distance race, and her first year in triathlon. Ever. Right out in Zittau Germany, with an elevation gain of 1400m, muddy climbs and rocky descents she got her baptism of fire! And we are so proud of her!
In April 2023, Multisport Malta saw the biggest coached group of athletes finishing the XTERRA Triathlon Experience. Multisport Malta also lead Mario, not only to his first Olympic distance race as being that of XTERRA Malta, but also to his age-group win, right on the first try! Qualifying to the world championships, he flew off to Trentino together with coach and athlete manager, to race an impeccable world championship race. Mario is the only local male athlete to do this so far.
In September 2023, Multisport Malta lead athletes to their first road Olympic and Half Ironman races, and Etna Marathon Mountain biking races, all extremely successful.
The beauty of all this? All our athletes are INJURY FREE, and reaching their goals right on time.
