Volunteers and officials are an essential part of the Sports Riders Club of Tasmania (SRCT). Ride and race days would not occur if the various roles and positions were not filled by people donating their time.
Roles and positions required depend on the event but are wide ranging. Some of these positions include:
• Clerk of Course
• Starter
• Flag marshals
• Timing
• Stewards
• Scrutineering
• Riders sign-on
• Recovery team
New officials and volunteers are provided support, on the job training and mentored into roles by experienced officials and volunteers.
Assistance can be provided in helping people obtain their Motorcycling Australia Officials License.
Officials and volunteers can be up-close and personal to the action. In fact, some positions give you the best seats in the house and in some cases, you couldn’t be closer to the action other than being on a bike, riding around the track.
Officials and volunteers are provided with lunch and a free ride day track fee pass when assisting for a day.
The SRCT also organises BBQs and other social events that volunteers and officials are welcome to attend.
As a volunteer you will also become part of a great club community which embraces people form all walks of life, providing a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
It doesn’t matter whether you’re are rider, a partner/spouse/parent of a rider, or just a lover of motorsport (or motorbike riding) who would like to help, then I would love to hear from you.
