In order that both The King of the Hill and The Lost Sheep races be sanctioned by Triathlon Ireland, Cork Tri Club needs to provide four club members to officiate as Technical Officials at other TI sanctioned races during the 2011 season.

Training for the Technical Officials will be provided by TI and training courses will be held in Cork on the following dates.

Anyone can attend and training is free to both TI members and non TI members.

The following is the expense entitlement that is available for Technical Officials (according to the TI website):

Its important that the club races are sanctioned by TI. We need to get the names of four volunteers to TI by 10 Feb.
