Wolfpack Pentathlon Club is an official IRS-designated 501(c)(3) Public Charity dedicated to developing the physical literacy, character, and competitive excellence of amateur athletes in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Through our specialized training pathways, we introduce athletes of all division, including youth, juniors, seniors, and masters athletes, to the Olympic sport of Modern Pentathlon—blending swimming, fencing, running, laser shooting, and the newly integrated obstacle course racing (OCR).

Because our executive board operates on a 100% volunteer, unpaid basis, we maintain near-zero administrative overhead. Your tax-deductible contributions directly fund on-the-ground coaching, athlete training, specialized safety equipment, and facility access.

🚀 Our Proven Impact & Traction

We operate an ultra-efficient, high-growth athletic pipeline verified by national governing bodies and rapid local adoption:

  • National Governing Validation: Officially backed and supported by a youth development grant from USA Triathlon in 2025 and 2026.
  • Explosive Community Growth: Local youth registration for our annual Super Sprint Aquathlon surged by nearly 500% year-over-year.
  • Elite Podium Success: Since our 2020 founding, Wolfpack athletes have captured 5 National Championship titles and repeatedly represented Team USA on the international stage.
  • The Future of the Olympics: Our regional sanctioned races serve as an official pipeline selecting local youth athletes to represent Team USA at the UIPM World Championships and Pan-Am Games heading into the LA 2028 Olympic Games.

  • $5,000+ – Event Title Sponsor: Fully sponsors the scoring infrastructure, safety personnel, and facility rental and insurance overhead required to operate our annual regional championship competitions.

🤝 Institutional & Corporate Partnerships

We are in a position to actively align our programming with foundation mandates that focus on expanding amateur sports access, fostering youth physical literacy, and supporting low-income or underrepresented student populations in Santa Clara and nearby counties, and we are looking for more partners to join us.

Our corporate governance structure is fully transparent. Our complete IRS Form 990-EZ disclosures, public charity determination letters, SafeSport safety protocols, and conflict of interest policies are instantly available on our public Transparency Page.
