Competition Volunteer Role Descriptions
RECORDING FOR THE JUDGES
You sit at a table with the judges, and enter the scores they provide to you into Scoreholder (gymnastics software programme). You report to the front desk during the warm up and get shown how to do this. ***Note this not complicated and you get the opportunity to be close to the gymnasts.
FRONT OF HOUSE
This is where we meet and greet at the front door and take the admission for spectators and sell raffle tickets. This can be done with another parent and you can have your child with you if need be.
BBQ
This seems to be the social area people hang out in. If your child is competing, then sign up during the warm up and after their comp, as this is when it is busiest and as most parents/caregivers are already here waiting for competition to start or waiting for prizegiving it's an efficient way to do your bit of volunteering. You just need sausages cooked, selling sausages and the drinks and/or taking the $$$. You can do this with your child (they can prepare the serviettes and bread and hand out the drinks).
CANTEEN
Again, similar to the BBQ if your child is competing then sign up before and/or after their competition, as this is when it is busiest. The BBQ and canteen are great ways to get to know the other parents of different STEP's/Levels.
MARSHALLING FOR TRAMP & TUMBLE
This involves checking all athletes have arrived and line them up in the correct order to compete. Advise athletes when it is their turn to walk out and take them around the competition.
