Bennelong SwissWellness Cycling Team p/b Cervelo

Bennelong SwissWellness Cycling Team p/b Cervelo (UCI team code: IWS) was an Australian UCI Continental cycling team focusing on road bicycle racing. Based in Tasmania since its establishment in 2000, the team's original title sponsor was a Tasmanian restaurant chain, Praties, but Genesys Wealth Advisers, an Australian financial planning network, has taken over this role in 2010.[1] The team was founded by Andrew Christie-Johnson and Steve Price.[2]

In 2014 team was the top ranked team in Australia's National Road Series (NRS).[3] It has competed overseas in the Tour of Qinghai Lake (2.HC), Tour de Taiwan (2.2) and the Herald Sun Tour (2.1).[4][5][6]

The team was invited to compete in the Team Time Trial of the 2013 UCI Road World Championships as the Oceania representative.[7]

For the 2016 season the team secured the sponsorship of sports nutrition company, IsoWhey Sports.[8]

For the 2017 season the team merged with SwissWellness,[9] securing the teams immediate future after Avanti announced they would stop sponsoring the team in October 2016[10]

The 2018 season saw Bennelong Funds Management secure primary naming rights of the team.[11]
