Spectator Ticketing involves checking tickets and allowing entry to the spectator stand, by providing them with a stamp. We need 3-4 people in this role for the start of sessions 7:30-9:00), then 2 people throughout all sessions.

Accreditation Desk volunteers will manage the entry and exit point by poolside. They will check the accreditation of incoming coaches, team managers, volunteers, and event staff, to ensure they have visible and approved accreditations in order to access poolside. This role will be active at all times of the event, but busiest in the morning from 7:30-9:00.

Marshalls are part of a team who are responsible for checking that athletes are present and ready to compete. Swimmers will go to the marshalling area prior to their race, where our volunteers will put them in order of their heat and lanes. The marshalls will guide the swimmers to the starting blocks ready to race.

Results runners are vital to ensuring the information from the timing suite reaches the officials, announcers, and athletes. As the name suggests, this role involves a lot of steps around the venue, taking the important messages to where they need to go.

Medal table volunteers are responsible for distributing medals following the results of the competition. Athletes will approach the desk when they have placed in their event, an this is awarded to them at the medal desk.

Officials are trained volunteers who are responsible for watching the racing and ensuring all technical elements comply with World Aquatics Standards. To volunteer as an official, you need to be doing or have done a qualification. For more information please contact the WMR volunteers coordinator, Ian Lamb, at: ian.lamb@blueyonder.co.uk
