Region Champions 2025 - Technical Delegates EOI
Event information
We are seeking EOIs for Technical Delegates at each of the 8 Regional Championships to be held over the first two weekends in February.
Each Region Championship is run by a team of local volunteers led by the Region Coordinator for that area. To help provide additional support and ensure the competition is run to the Rules, we appoint a Technical Delegate to each one. Accommodation and travel expenses are included.
If you've got the experience as a Technical Official and a desire to be involved, please submit an EOI by 20th December 2024.
For further information, please refer to the role description below or email Daniel Warren (Workforce Manager) via daniel.warren@nswathletics.org.au
REGION TECHNICAL DELEGATE
A Region Technical Delegate (RTD) has been allocated to each region to ensure that this championship is conducted in accordance with the relevant rules, regulations, policies and requirements of Little Athletics NSW and Little Athletics Australia.
This responsibility is carried out in conjunction with the carnival manager and region coordinator.
As this championship is one at which progressions are determined, it must be under the control of the LANSW representation to adhere to this requirement.
The role of the RTD is simply to monitor the organisation and conduct of the region championships – before, during and after the carnival. Should the relevant rules, regulations, policies, and requirements not be followed however, the RTD does have the authority to direct the required changes, in consultation with the Region Coordinator.
To properly fulfill this role, the RTD should be readily available throughout the weekend and therefore should not hold a key official position. They need to be available to generally observe and monitor progress of the championship.
Some examples of tasks that the RTD needs to undertake are:
Prior to the Carnival (If possible)
-
Attend region meetings (where practicable) and/or receive copies of all relevant correspondence/reports
-
Ensure the provision of a copy of the survey certificate is sent to the office
-
Check that a safety coordinator has been appointed
-
Ensure that a jury of appeal has been established and is listed in the program
-
Make sure that appropriate first aid personnel have been organised
During the Carnival
-
Fulfill responsibilities on the jury of appeal, where required
-
Check that adequate first aid personnel are present
-
Check that the ground is marked correctly and that facilities are adequate
-
Liaise with the region coordinator and carnival manager to ensure that storm and heat policies are adhered to
-
Be available to meet key personnel from region, zones and centres and discuss any matters that arise
After the Carnival
-
Return to the office field event and/or track sheets plus images of photo finish (if electronic timing is used)
-
Return stopwatches and any relevant paperwork to the office
-
Advise (to the Comp Manager and/or Board) any serious medical or disciplinary problems which may have occurred
