Ever thought of becoming a commissaire/official/referee?

Cycling always needs new officials! We rely on a workforce of officials who ensure all events in the 6 British Cycling disciplines are conducted in a fair manner. With thousands of cycling events every year there is something for everyone. The events range from local grass root such as Go-Ride Racing right up to Commissairing at the Olympics!

Why become an official?

· You want to put something back into the sport you love

· A rewarding job to see the best rider win

· Social side of meeting people with the same passion

· An enjoyment of being outdoors

· To be in the company of people who all want to enjoy themselves and a good atmosphere

· Your club needs more people to officiate so you can all race in a series

This is the first step on the officiating pathway and will allow you to expand your knowledge in a classroom setting and discover officiating first hand through practical experience at events.

 

Pre Course:

Prerequisites to the course include holding a British Cycling Membership (bronze, silver, gold or ride) and having a good understanding of the rules regulating your chosen discipline.
