Southern Vets Athletics League - Battersea Park 13th May

Each year, Serpentine hosts a London Masters League athletics match and this year it’s on Monday (evening), 13 May at the Millennium Arena in Battersea Park.  This is our only track and field "Home Match" this year.  Andrew Maynard, Catkin Shelly and I are looking for some wonderful Serpie volunteers to help us with the judging of the track and field events.  Thank you to those people who have already offered to help. 

We’re looking for another 17 people, 3 to help judge the track events (basically, this involves deciding the finishing order of the runners) and 14 to assist with judging of the field events, so that we know who far the athletes have jumped or thrown.  You’ll be working alongside some experienced judges, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t have previous experience.   

You’ll need to be available from 6.10pm for the field events and 6.45pm for the track races.  The competition should finish by 9.15pm. 

If you’d like to help with the officiating or would like further information, please can you contact me on malcolmfrench1962@yahoo.com  

If you’re not sure where the Battersea track is, you’ll find a map and travel information on https://www.serpentine.org.uk/pages/location_battersea.html

If you’re interested in competing and are age 35+, please contact either Catkin Shelly (women’s team) on Catherine.shelley@gmail.com or Andrew Maynard (men’s team) on Andrew.maynard@bluewin.ch

Thank you in anticipation of your support,

Malcolm French – malcolmfrench1962@yahoo.com
