What Atletiek- en triathlonvereniging Typhoon does

Atletiek- en triathlonvereniging Typhoon (AV Typhoon, legal entity G.A. & T.V. Typhoon) is a member-based Dutch sports association (vereniging) headquartered at Sportpark Molenvliet, Grote Schelluinsekade 22, Gorinchem, Netherlands. The club delivers coached athletics, running, and triathlon training organized by age group from U8 (minipupillen) through Masters (40+), with specialized programs including the Start to Run beginner course (€50/person), Wandelcursus walking program (€55/quarter after trial), Senioren Fit, MILA middle-distance, Prestatie Loopgroep, Marathon training, and an inclusive Athletics4all group for athletes with disabilities. It also operates the triathlon subgroup of approximately 13 members with coached swim sessions at Caribabad (October–May) and open-water sessions in the Kanaal van Steenenhoek (June–September).

The club's technology footprint is intentionally minimal: no proprietary platform, app, or API exists, and digital infrastructure is limited to the avtyphoon.nl website, Facebook and Instagram accounts, email newsletters, the inschrijven.nl event registration service for the annual Typhoonloop, and the Balans webshop for club clothing. Facility access is managed through a digital key (Digitale Sleutel) for members over 16 with full membership.

Revenue is generated through six streams: quarterly membership subscriptions (€19–€55 depending on category), one-time registration fees (€20), Atletiekunie competition license fees (€27/year), Typhoonloop event entry fees, merchandise sales through the Balans webshop, and a roster of Gold/Silver/Bronze sponsorship packages plus annual Club van 50 contributions of €50+. Distribution is direct-to-consumer at the club location and self-serve online for events. Core partnerships include Fysio PP for embedded physiotherapy and sports psychology, Caribabad for swim access, and the Stichting StARD regional athletics association for competition coordination.
