The current timing team of Liz Argent, Carol Reeves and Lucy Watson are retiring at the end of this year and we need to recruit replacements. Ideally we would like volunteers immediately so the present team can train them over the rest of this season's meetings.
The timing team are required to be at every SE Centre MX event during the season to handle the hiring of transponders on the day, produce times for timed training and time and produce a set of race results for the meeting, finally posting them up on the My Laps website.
The job descriptions of the present team are listed below :-
Storage of the equipment between meetings, bringing the equipment to the meeting and setting up including the timing loop.
Liasing with the organising club on the event entry list and inputting the data prior to the meeting.
2 x timing operatives on the day responsible for timed training, printing the results and working out allocations to races and overall positions.
Posting the meeting results on the My Laps website.
Liasing with the organising club on which riders require to hire transponders on the day.
Issue and collect back transponders for hire on the day of the event. Collect monies due, pay the travel expenses due to the team plus any consumables and finally bank the residue of the monies.
The Timing Team plays an important role in modern MX events and to make sure we keep a high standard there is a generous remuneration of "travelling expenses" on offer.
