NTB / Triathlon Racing License
What are the advantages of having a NTB license?
The NTB license comprises of two parts, basic membership and athletics license. You need to have the first one in order to apply for the second (used in triathlon races).
This is particularly important if you are racing in the Netherlands or abroad where a day license is required. Day licenses cost around 25,- EUR a time, so if you plan to race more than once in a calendar year, it's wise to get an NTB license.
Furthermore an NTB license grants a free basic KNWU (National Roadbike Union) license (to participate in fun races, MTB and cyclo cross) but not as part of ATAC club. Further info can be found here on the NTB Website.
The NTB License grants a free license to the Dutch Athletics Union as well. Meaning you won't have to start behind the business participants of the Dam-to-Dam run. Just sign up for the official race, quite a nice advantage! More information on this, click here.
