Parent help is an essential part of the competitions that run each Saturday, it takes around 70 parents from the 5 clubs to make the day happen.
Over the course of the season (17 event days), it’s expected that a parent from each family would volunteer 8-9 times. Duties on Saturdays are very easy and include things such as timing runners, measuring a throw or entering results. If parents are not prepared to do duties we simply can’t register their children as it creates more work for other families.
Almost all families who sign up with us, return for the following season, so it’s never as bad as people say!!
