Parent Duty Roster (v2)
We have received the duty allocation from EMR – while there have been some late changes to the allocations today, you can download the duty roster here.
Please note: Parent duty at EMR Track and Field Carnival is compulsory. A reminder that all parents agreed to the condition of undertaking duty when registering. We have significantly more duty than previous years and there is little chance of changing your duty now that has been allocated to you.
Note: Knox LAC does enforce the following policy:
If you do not turn up for the duty assigned to you, or you do not complete your duty as required, your child will be scratched from all their events and will take no further part at any regional or state competition.
If you cannot do the duty assigned to you, you are responsible for finding another person to do that assigned duty, and advise the Knox LAC Team Manager without delay of the change.
Please remember, that when performing a duty, LAVic requires that you must wear enclosed shoes when officiating, (no thongs, sandals). Please see information on performing your duty in the Athlete Information booklet.
