About the SAMSC Training Team
We have a training programme for marshals and officials of all levels of experience, from complete novice to guru level. Our courses are all free, and run by qualified instructors licensed by Motorsport UK.
Training
The importance of marshals’ training and accreditation cannot be over-emphasised. Its purpose is to ensure that all Marshals have a common understanding of their roles and responsibilities, the management of spectators and how to handle and manage an incident. This means maintaining a marshal’s Personal Record Card to demonstrate that both acceptable training and event attendance has been carried out in order to ensure competence. It also allows a progression through the available levels of the Marshals Development Pathway.
Registered Marshal
We strongly encourage Marshals to register with Motorsport UK as this is the best way to ensure that you receive the proper training for your role regardless of the discipline. You will also receive:
- A tabard, registration card and Personal Record Card (PRC), so you can keep a log of your activity as a valued volunteer in the sport
