Upon arrival, please proceed to the Volunteer Point and log your arrival with the event director. Volunteer briefings for your allocated role(s) will also start at the Volunteer Point.
All volunteers are required to bring their mobile phones and keep them switched on at all times during the event to stay in touch with race control, other marshals and emergency services. You will be issued with a badge as part of your volunteer kit, which shows phone numbers for the event director and emergency services.
Please add yourself to the volunteer WhatsApp group either in the days leading up to the event or upon check-in on event day via this LINK to make team internal communication a breeze. When you write or respond to a message in the chat, please start the sentence with your name and role, e.g 'Stacey@BM1: Is the last bike out on course yet?'. The chat will be closed 1 day after the event.
In case of accidents and emergencies, we have access to the first aid facilities at Tolcarne beach as well as a medical team with first response vehicle on site. If you witness an accident or a participant informs you of an accident, please let the event organiser know and inform the emergency services (if instructed to do so). All relevant phone numbers are printed on the back of your volunteer badge.
The senior event is run on open roads and participants need to follow the rules of the road at all times. As a marshal, you have NO authority to stop traffic.

The Micro Goat is a fun, non-timed event for 5-8y olds. To help with social distancing, we are using a rolling start, limiting the number of children on the course to max 15. Parents support their children in a socially distanced transition area to change from run to bike and bike to run. Marshals have no direct contact with the children and can maintain their distance.
