Final Appeal for Officials & Marshals

This is a very important appeal for volunteers to help us at the National Masters Road Relays to be held at Sutton Park on Saturday, 12^th May 2012.

Because the event clashes with the County Track & Field Championships we are desperately short of Officials. We need timekeepers, recorders, funnel recorders and anyone who can help with the start and finish procedures. Anyone who feels they can help us out then please in the first instance contact Mike Wrenn on mike.wrenn@blueyonder.co.uk

I am also compiling a list of Marshals; any member interested in helping out here should please contact me on mmac.sec@blueyonder.co.uk

I currently have 15 places to fill spread between the two races.

If we cannot get the required number of people then the event will be in danger of being called off.

Please try to help if you can.

MMAC Relays & AGM

Important – Please Read…..

I’ve only just found out the confusion on how many legs are to be run for the M35-44 & M45-54 age groups.

The entry form said 4 legs but the Newsletter said 3 legs for the M45-54 and I didn’t spot it. Therefore some Clubs have entered 4 athletes and some 3. The decision has been made to keep to the M35-44 as 4 legs and the M45-54 as 3 legs, this avoids teams turning up with a runner short.

We are trying to keep to the BMAF 10 year age groups and the changes have caused some confusion.

Apologies for this error and I hope that it doesn’t spoil your participation.

One final appeal…. please do your best to attend the AGM after the presentation of prizes for the relays.

BMAF National Open Masters Road Relays

Volunteers Required

It’s that time of year again!! After our own Road Relays that take place this coming weekend, I have to start thinking of the BMAF National Open Road Relays at Sutton Park on the 21^st May. Here we have to supply a bare minimum of 11 marshals. There are two races, am & pm, so if some marshals can only do one race then potentially I need 22 people.

If any of you that intend to be at Sutton Park but cannot run, then please consider helping out with the marshalling, even if it’s for only one race.

All details on where to sign in etc. will be sent to you beforehand and there will be a subsistence allowance paid. Some marshals will be required to have a radio so that contact can be made with the race start. These are easy to operate, so don’t be afraid!

If you feel that you will be able to help then please contact me by email on mmac.sec@blueyonder.co.uk

Age Groups – BMAF Road Relays

We have received a proposal that from 2011, the age groups for MEN replicate those for WOMEN and the age groupings under EVAA Non-Stadia Team Rules for Road events, namely:

M35-44 / M45-54 / M55-64 / M65-74 / M75+

It’s important that as many Clubs vote to make it representational as possible.
