Our Club Runs on Volunteers

Glendene Amateur Athletics Club is proudly run by volunteers, and we need your help to make every club night a success.

We ask parents and caregivers of athletes competing each week to lend a hand. This season, we've introduced a few changes to make volunteering easier and ensure everyone gets the opportunity to support and watch their children compete.

Finish Line Duties: Finish line roles (spotting 1st, 2nd and 3rd placings and handing out place cards) will be rostered by age group to ensure we have enough helpers each week. For example, caregivers of 6-year-olds may be rostered one week, while caregivers of 7-year-olds may be rostered another.

Parent-Led Field Events: Our field events will be run with the support of parents and caregivers. No experience is needed! Easy-to-follow coach and scorer guides will be available at each event and shared on our website and social media before the season.

How You Can Help

Finish Line: Assist with recording placings and handing out place cards. These duties will be assigned through the volunteer roster.

Field Events: Help measure throws and jumps, record results, and encourage our athletes as they compete.

End of Night Pack-Up: During Block 3, we'd appreciate help collecting field event equipment and returning it to the sign-in area. Many hands make light work!

Many Hands Make Light Work

Our goal is for every club night to be fun, friendly, and enjoyable for the whole family. When everyone pitches in, we can keep the programme running smoothly and provide the best possible experience for all athletes.

If you need help or have any questions during the night, please find one of our commitee members.

Without the support of our amazing parents and caregivers, we simply couldn't run our events each week.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who volunteers their time and supports our club. Your contribution makes a real difference and helps create a fantastic environment for our young athletes.
