MGCC Officials
Officials Hand Book (PDF)
The Officials
Register was formed late in 2005 in order to firstly comply with CAMS’
instructions regarding the licencing regulations as laid down and to most
importantly ensure that the Club had a comprehensive understanding of just who
our volunteers are, where we can reach them and the functions that they are
each licenced to perform. Based on this information we can gear training
programs to build strengths and consolidate previous
experience.
A motor club and
motor sport at all levels could not exist without the work of volunteer
officials. The MG Car Club offers plenty of opportunity for MG enthusiasts to
be involved. The Club maintains a database of some 65 members and friends
who regularly marshal at MG Car Club events and race meetings in which the MG
Car Club Victoria is involved.
The Club organises a
variety of events ranging from motorkhanas, hill- climbs, gymkhanas sprints and
trials which all require marshals to handle various jobs. These events
take place at Rob Roy, Calder, Sandown, Winton, at venues in and
about Melbourne and nearby regional areas. We even have an annual
challenge event against the MG Car Club of South Australia and alternate
the venue between Mallala in SA and Sandown in Victoria. Before each major
event the volunteers are invited to the club rooms to be allocated their tasks
and to collect their free admission passes and race meeting instructions.
The marshalling lists
include those who volunteer for a variety of jobs from experienced observers
and flag marshals, fire marshals, pit and paddock officials, newcomers who are
learning the ropes and those who handle race radios and help in the
administration offices. Junior members can serve as 'runners' (with their
parents' permission!).
This is a rewarding
way of getting involved with the Club, generally you will not require any
experience or qualifications other than enthusiasm! But you will need to hold a
Cams Official’s Licence, if you don’t hold a current licence just click here and complete.
But above all else
