The Aim
The aim of the Club Volunteer incentive is to recognise & reward those wonderful individuals who assist the Club by volunteering throughout the year at Club run events. Without these people the events & the Club wouldn’t be as successful as we are.
Recognition (free stuff)
- Volunteers will be eligible for spot prizes at all Triathlon Tauranga run events. GENX Homes
/ Marra Construction Tinman Triathlon, Eves Surfbreaker Triathlon, Calley Homes
Womens Triathlon, Marra Sprint Triathlon, Teamline Aquathons, MYRIDE Mt Maunganui
Time Trial’s and Smiths Sports Shoes Winter Duathlons. Also the Tauranga Half. - Once you have volunteered for three or more of our events you will get one ½ price entry
for yourself into one of our Triathlon Tauranga events. Tinman, Surfbreaker, Calley
Homes Womens Tri or Marra Sprint Tri. For those volunteers that do not compete you will
be rewarded with a Triathlon Tauranga running cap or trucker cap (This only applies to the
initial three events you do each year). - If you have volunteered for six or more events you will receive a free ticket to our club
prize giving evening and receive a free meal for all your hard work over the year. You’ll also
be in the running for our volunteer of the year award.
Training
- Full information and training will be provided to ensure that you are fully briefed for the
task undertaken. This information will provide clear expectations of the required task and
ensure the safety of event participants and yourself. - Plenty of notice will be given to you giving you all the information you need to fulfill your
volunteer role at any of our events. Remember that the word volunteer implies voluntary
attendance. So if you can’t make it on the day there is no problem, just let us know and we
will sort it out. Attendance should be fun and not put any pressure on you or your family.
Get Involved
- If you like the sound of this and would like to help us out please contact Paul Miller on
027 270 5300. - Remember we will not put you into a difficult job that is beyond your experience. Many
marshalling positions are easy and fun and not stressful at all. - If you are involved with any Club, sports group or school group who are looking for fundraising opportunities, please get in touch.
Conditions
- It will be at the Club’s discretion, the events that are recognised under this programme, and if other races are added during the season. Other races in the BOP region may also count.
- The programme will run alongside the membership year. For instance, all events that you volunteer at within the 12 month Tri season will count. This will reset at the beginning of the season – running from Nov to Oct.
- We will maintain a Volunteer Register indicating the races that volunteers have been involved in.
- Please feel free to contact Paul at events@triathlontauranga.org.nz for more information.
