We continue to direct people to great events, offer coaching services, and encourage them to meet some of the nicest people around.
-Doug Rice, Founder
The Sandy Hookers is a Triathlon/Multi-Sport Club, founded by Doug Rice in 1989, to bring like-minded people together. Our idea was to establish a social venue for athletes as well as people interested in multi-sports, to find others to train with. Even though most of our members are from the Monmouth/Ocean County area, we are proud to be one of the oldest and largest triathlon clubs in the country. The Sandy Hookers' members range from some of the most competitive in the area, to beginners new to triathlons, and all levels of athletes who just want to participate and lead a healthy lifestyle. We welcome anyone and everyone.
For over 20 years, the Sandy Hookers has helped thousands of people reach their potential and realize their dreams, and we did it together, as a club, by introducing new people to a sport that in most cases has changed their lives.
