VOLUNTEERING

There are many volunteer opportunities within the NorWesters Track and Field Club. From leadership and organizational support to coaching, helping at practices and meets, to attaining sponsorships, there are many ways. We know life is busy and everyone has busy schedules, but even a few hours a month can make all the difference in the lives of our young and aspiring athletes. Our Club supports the BC Athletics Officials program, and many of our members volunteer and work with them at events. NorWesters has six registered BC Athletics officials and would like to have more trained people.

BC ATHLETICS OFFICIALS

BC Athletics Officials are trained volunteers who work at Track and Field, Cross Country and Road events. These are the people who ensure the fairness/measurements/fun and organization of the track meets we all attend. Many are parents, but some are athletes, active or retired. Young athletes can join the Under-18 officials program to enhance their understanding of the sport, and accumulate credits for school programs. We encourage our members to get involved. Visit the BCA Officials Web Page for the latest information on training and certification as an official.
