For both the men and women, the 20th and thus last contracted T100 athlete has been announced: Belgian Jelle Geens and British Lucy Charles-Barclay.

Especially for Lucy Charles-Barclay, the choice is somewhat striking, as she announced big time at the launch of the T100 that she would focus the season entirely on that series. She quickly came back on that decision, although she did not know then that she would end up running a short season due to injuries. But in 2025, the British athlete does hope to focus on the T100 series.

The 20 women on contracts for next season are Taylor Knibb (USA), Ashleigh Gentle (AUS), Julie Derron (SUI), Flora Duffy (BER), Lucy Byram (GBR), India Lee (GBR), Imogen Simmonds (SUI), Paula Findlay (CAN), Taylor Spivey (USA), Kate Waugh (GBR), Jessica Learmonth (GBR), Laura Madsen (DEN), Caroline Pohle (GER), Emma Pallant-Browne (GBR), Ellie Salthouse (AUS), Marta Sanchez (ESP), Grace Thek (AUS), Hannah Berry (NZL), Els Visser (NED) and so is Charles-Barclay.

On the men’s side, Jelle Geens is thus the latest man to be presented as a contracted athlete. Last season he competed once in the T100 series and that race – Las Vegas – he won immediately. Geens joins the 19 other men who had already earned a contract: Marten Van Riel (BEL), Kyle Smith (NZL), Rico Bogen (GER), Sam Long (USA), Mathis Margirier (FRA), Pieter Heemeryck (BEL), Youri Keulen (NED), Frederic Funk (GER), Hayden Wilde (NZL), Léo Bergère (FRA), Vincent Luis (FRA), Morgan Pearson (USA), Mika Noodt (GER), Justus Nieschlag (GER), Gregory Barnaby (ITA), Antonio Benito-Lopez (ESP), Nicolas Mann (GER), Menno Koolhaas (NED) and Jason West (USA).

For now, the calendar of the T100 is fairly unclear. Only seven races have been announced, while previously it was said that the series would consist of at least ten races.
