Team TBC-SportsAid

British triathlon has its own 'pro' triathlon team. Launched in 2009, Team TBC-SportsAid (previously Team ActiveInstinct), brought together seven - at the time - largely unheralded athletes, under one banner to form the UK's first pro-development team. It proved to be a exceptionally successful first year. The team approach for 2010, and indeed the foreseeable future, will continue to be that of a development team: encouraging and supporting promising age group athletes.

Saracens RFC

The Saracens name can be traced back to the famous desert warriors led by Saladin in the late 12th century. They were renowned for their extreme mobility, and powers of endurance, which when allied to their bountiful enthusiasm, rendered the Saracens invincible. In 1876 the Saracens Football Club was founded by the Old Boys of the Philological School in Marylebone.
The 2009/10 season for Saracens was a memorable one. After winning their opening eight league games in the Guinness Premiership, the club sat at the top of the table going into the Christmas period. But despite making it to the Premiership final against Leicester Tigers, there was to be no happy ending. Glen Jackson kicked Saracens into a winning position with just two minutes to go following two Ernst Joubert tries, but a late try from Dan Hipkiss saw the Tigers steal a 33-27 victory.
