Obviously we couldn't do it without our sponsors who invest a lot of money and energy to this team. We started with the Supralux Kullo name, than we become Supralux Mali and finally we ended on the TVK MALI Triathlon Klub name. 

Today the name of the team is still TVK MALI Triathlon Klub and we still enjoy the Tiszai Vegyi Kombinat joint-stock company's support. Because the local government manage the triathlon team as a stressed branch of sport, the athletes have a very good condition to get ready for the International Competitions.

The Triathlon House was handed over to the team in 1998 by the local government and I can say without any self-conceit this is one of the best place for triathlon practice in Hungary, Europe or I might say in the World.

During these seven years we got more talent to organize races. After the first little race we organized the Hungarian Championship. During these years our organizer group got together and I can say calmly this team is known everywhere around the world. The organizer team gives us a big support to organize the final race for the best Hungarian athletes', the TVK Cup. The "big bite" was coming in 1997, the World Cup.

We could organize in 1998 also because we had a great success in the year before. This year-we might say it's a tradition- on the 8th of Aug. in 1999 we're going to organize the seventh event of the 1999 World Cups, the ITU TVK Triathlon World Cup.

But in this year also on the 1st of Aug. we're going to organize the European Team Championship that called ETU AES Triathlon Championship and we hope our group is going to participate wit a great success.

In the name of the peoples in Tiszaujvaros, the TVK MALI Triathlon Klub I welcome you to Tiszaujvaros in 1999.
