Volunteers
It takes a big team of officials and volunteers to run athletics competitions. Volunteers are needed to help officiate the field events (no experience necessary). If enough people volunteer then everyone only needs to help for an hour or so on the day.
For club athletes who aren't competing, this is your chance to "give something back" by helping out.
If you're available to help, please speak to Alistair or add your name on the entry form.
