Billy Williams – World Sprint Duathlon Championships 2026
My name is Billy Williams, and I’m an age group duathlete with a strong track record of international competition. I recently represented Great Britain at the World Age Group Sprint Distance Duathlon Championships, where I placed 9th overall and was the 2nd British athlete across the line.
I’m excited to share that I’ve pre-qualified for next year’s World Championships in Abu Dhabi and am currently training and competing in both duathlon and competitive running events throughout the season. As I prepare for this major opportunity, I’m reaching out to explore potential sponsorship or partnership opportunities.
I’m currently seeking support—whether financial, gear-based, or promotional—that can help me perform at my best on the international stage. In return, I would proudly represent your brand by featuring your logo on my kit and promoting your products and values through my social media channels, including Instagram, where I actively share training, race updates, and engage with the endurance sports community.
Target Audience
This includes fellow duathletes, triathletes, runners, cyclists, and multisport fans, many of whom follow competitive age group racing and look to athletes like myself for motivation, gear recommendations, and training inspiration. Mainly made up of males and females aged 15-50, highly social, highly active athletes.
By partnering with me, a sponsor can reach a niche but loyal and growing community that’s enthusiastic about endurance sport and receptive to brands that support it.
Moreover, the opportunity with partnering up with you can help me build my audience to professionals, enthusiasts, and lifestyle-focused individuals who invest in quality equipment, nutrition, and experiences related to sport and well-being, who are highly engaged on social media, especially Instagram, and value authentic, grassroots-level content from athletes they can relate to.
Key Dates and Timings
The key event I’m preparing for is the 2026 World Age Group Sprint Distance Duathlon Championships, which will take place in Abu Dhabi in November 2026.
I am seeking sponsorship support to begin from as early as possible, to help cover the full training, kit, and racing season leading up to the World Championships.
The sponsorship period can run for the full 2026 season, including:
Lead-up races and training
The World Championships in Abu Dhabi
Post-event promotion and content sharing
I’d also be open to building a longer-term partnership if the opportunity aligns well for both sides.
Specific Opportunity Details
One of my key upcoming opportunities is competing at the 2025 World Age Group Sprint Distance Duathlon Championships in Abu Dhabi, where I’ve already pre-qualified to represent Great Britain. This high-profile international event brings together top age group athletes from around the world and garners strong exposure both on-site and online through race coverage, federation platforms, and athlete content.
In addition to the World Championships, I regularly race throughout the UK in national duathlon and running events, which are well-attended by athletes, spectators, and the endurance sports community.
My current Instagram handle is @billywilliams9191, where I share training insights, race day content, product highlights, and results. While I’m still growing my following, I have strong engagement from athletes, coaches, and endurance enthusiasts. My content is authentic, consistent, and aligned with the values of performance, discipline, and healthy living.
Why partner with me?
I have proven international-level results, including a top-10 world finish and 2nd British athlete at the 2025 championships.
I actively compete and train year-round, giving ongoing visibility to brand partners.
I’m proud to represent companies that share my values and would showcase your support through kit branding, social media integration, and ambassador-style collaboration.
With Abu Dhabi 2026 approaching, now is the ideal time for a brand to join me on this journey and grow alongside my progress.
