Parent Duty
Parent duty during the cross season is compulsory. Knox uses an online booking system through Volunteer Sign Up. Calendar entries on the Knox Website will contain the link to sign up for duty. Parents can nominate a duty on a particular week. Duty roles include – set up and pack , timing, course marshals etc. Parents on duty will need to check in with the duty manager on the day.
Knox Athletes: If you were registered with Knox LAC for Track and Field this season, you are already registered for Cross Country. Nothing to pay. Just bring your current number patch and be ready to run and you can wear your club or Knox centre top.
Other Centres: Registered athletes from other LAVic centres are welcome to participate at normal meets. Just bring your current number patch and check-in at the Registration/Duty Desk so athlete details can be recorded.
Athletes registering with other centres just for the Cross Country season must register early enough to allow time to collect their registration patch from their centre registrar, prior to attending a Knox Cross Country meet. You will not be able to participate until you have obtained your registration patch from your centre.

If you haven’t done Cross Country before, come and give it a try! Come to an event and see one of our volunteers at the Registration/Duty desk.
