Maverick Multisport started in 2012 with 3 pros and 2 age group athletes. Maverick Multisport was created by Team Director Chris Hutchens as way for those 5 USA based athletes at the time to operate under the same banner and leverage the power of numbers in a team setting to help secure sponsorships with companies like INFINIT Nutrition. Maverick has been working with INFINIT since the team’s creation to create biking and running custom nutrition blends for all of their athletes.

Now in 2017 the team has grown to include 5 pros (3 based in the USA, Lesley Smith, Jon Shearon and Rudy von Berg and 2 in Australia, Dan Wilson and Clayton Fettell) along with 48 age group athletes from around the world and currently has relationships with 18 international companies.

"Over the past 5 years we've had the pleasure to work with numerous companies throughout the industry. Most of the companies and the products that we've had the ability to partner with over that time have been for the most part very easy to work with, with no major hiccups and ease-of-use. I can say that Infinit Nutrition has been the front in that department, one that we've never had any issues. We've had over 100 athletes on the product since we started and I can say we've never had a single issue with anyone adapting to or finding a blend that works for them. The beauty of Infinit, because of the customization feature, is it truly is able to be an adapted to meet an individuals needs whether it's adjusting flavor, sodium, calories or we can even make adjustments from race to race needs or hot vs cold weather nutrition requirements. There isn't another product on the market that can compete with Infinit."

- Chris Hutchens, Team Director

Maverick and INFINIT have been working together over the years to improve the youth level athletes of triathlon. Maverick provides young athletes with an opportunity to work with members of its Elite team in a mentor style program to improve not only their physical abilities, but also their mental strength and understanding of the sport.

Maverick has continued to shine as an INFINIT Team. Not only have they shown continued success in a variety of events, but they have time and time again shown that creating a top tier team goes beyond just having a group of talented athletes. Maverick’s continued support for their athletes, and the community around the sport of triathlon, has built a reputation that INFINIT is proud to be partnered with.
