AN appeal has been issued for volunteer marshals to help with the running of triathlon events.
Hartlepool Council is looking to recruit people to help with its current Go Tri series and the town’s Big Lime Triathlon on Sunday September 25.
The Go Tri events aim to help people prepare for the Big Lime Triathlon and the next Go Tri 3 takes place on Sunday July 3.
Kay Stokes, of the council’s Feel Good in Hartlepool team, said: “Marshals will be placed at strategic points around the course to assist both competitors and spectators.
“We would like to thank those people who have already agreed to give up their time to be volunteer marshals, but if we can recruit just a few more we will be able to have marshals at more points along the course.”
Volunteer marshals must be aged 16 and over. Go Tri 3 marshals will be required to be outside Mill House Leisure Centre for 7am where they will be briefed.
For more information or to register to volunteer call 01429-284050 or e-mail feelgood@hartlepool.gov.uk
