XC National Champs Marshals thread

Hi all,

As the big day is fast approaching and all the course prep and behind the scenes work is in full swing its time to make sure we have enough marshals and helpers to ensure such an important day for the club runs as smoothly as possible, for that to happen its going to take us all to pull together and get involved for at least a few hours each. Its a tight schedule with back to back racing and practice sessions all day from the kids races at 9:30 up until the last race finishes at 17:30, so having enough volunteers is critical to make it all run like clockwork.The plan is to rotate marshalls throughout the day to (1) allow people to race and have adequate time to get race ready and (2) so nobody is stuck in one spot for the whole day, but this will only be made possible if we have enough bodies to spread about. Sorry if I am going on a bit but we need have a good crew on the day.

I will post a list of all who have kindly said they will help out on the day and update it throughout the week, so if everyone on that list can pm me a mobile number and email address it would be great.

Thanks a million,
Gary.

Hi Gary,

I'm away at present so can't help out before that. I can do whatever on the day, but hoping to race in baggies and U8's. I'll PM you my details.

Hi Gary, I hope to have the field set up on Saturday evening and finalised by 9.30 on Sunday morning. After that I'll lend a hand with the kids races (U6 - U10). After these I'll lend a hand where needs be. Cheers, Dave

Awesome!
I'll be available to help out. I'm in town and I'm not going to race as I'm as fast as a three legged cart horse with narcolepsy. Let me know what you need

Hi Gary, I am not racing either. I can do whatever on the day as needed. I don't have experience so I don't know where you can need me. But count on me

Goodman Juan, thanks for getting on board, dont worry I will go through the basics on the day before we set out. I will get Terry to post up his pre prepared ultra marshalls list of handy tips aswell. Send me a message with your mobile number and email when you get a minute. Thanks

Always the sports Cat Gary, its a brilliant course. Loads to do on the day. Thanks Dude
I'm spectating at the kids at 9.30, then free to marshal / help till sports race, then free to marshal / help from then on till the very end
Available Sat afternoon to help tape out etc

my pennies worth:
Gary & I rode the course on Sunday - its a lot of course to marshal with a good few pinch points where riders meet walkers which could see up to 4 marshals being around those areas alone
we really need as many club members to step up to the mark on this to make this race both safe and professional for everyone at it
Deadly, thanks Rob.
Yep some course to marshall so I hope we have the numbers to do it justice.
I'll be around all day and happy to do the morning races
Just keep me close to the field incase anyone has question or issues.
Cheers Chris
