Help needed at Battersea Track on 23rd and 27th June

Our club will host two T&F matches at Battersea Millenium Arena in the second half of June (23rd and 27th, see details below). Apart from athletes to ensure our teams are as strong as possible and give other clubs a run for their money (details on what to do if you want to compete are below), we need helpers to make sure the meetings can happen and run as smoothly as possible. We already have volunteers/officials for many of the important roles, but we need more people to make sure the meetings run smoothly. You don't need to have had any experience of this type before as qualified officials will be there to explain what to do.

The atmosphere at both events is fantastic and this is a great opportunity to meet new people and give back to the club for what you receive. We already have volunteers/officials for many of the important roles, but need more people to make sure the meetings run smoothly. You don't need to have had any experience of this type before as qualified officials will be there to explain what to do. Your help will also count towards securing a club London marathon spot in 2019 if you are interested in it. Please send an email to athletics@serpentine.org.uk to register or if you have any questions. 

We won't be able to hold these matches without enough volunteers, so please consider giving some help at least at one of the two matches. Our teams will be grateful forever.
