Interested in Volunteering at Track and Field?
Check out the different volunteer roles we offer:
Prep/Barker
Guide teams as they come up for competition, direct teams to resources, ensure every athlete has proper dress attire and make sure nothing not allowed is brought into the tent area.
Registration
Post check-in times for events, check in athletes at the correct time for their events (check bib with book, mark bib and connect athlete with runner) and mark withdrawals into the books.
Runner
Similar to escort; however, you will be taking the athlete assigned to you to their event or handing them off to a tent volunteer.
Tent Volunteers
Ensure everyone is checked in and accounted for in each heat, ensure the boards are updated, help keep athletes/groups flowing through the process, coordinate with escorts to ensure athletes are accompanied and help make sure athletes are staying hydrated and encouraged.
Escorts
Stay with the athlete until you are assigned to escorting until you hand them off at the tent to be staged. Or, if picking them up after their event, escort them back to their group.
Awards
Set up awards stands, review results with the Competition Director, present medals to athletes, play Olympic theme music and announce awards. Rotate with other volunteers to take turns clapping and cheering on athletes as awards are announced.
Pentathlon
Stay with the pentathlete through all events, ensure they are staying hydrated and having fun, and escort them to awards at the end of the day.
