Last summer we launched the Welsh Athletics Regional Volunteer Awards to recognise and value the contribution made by active volunteers in the club and regional activity across the four regions.

In January we had nominations from various clubs across Wales - Menai Track & Field, Prestatyn Running Club, Pembrokeshire Harriers, Griffithstown Harriers, Builth & District Running Club, Ogmore Phoenix Runners.

Eligibility: All volunteers who contribute positively to athletics in Wales.  

• The recipient has contributed to club and regional activity within the selected timeframe.
• The recipient has shown commitment to own development through qualifications and training relevant to their role e.g. Welfare, Coaching, Officiating, etc., and has used their knowledge and skills to positive effect in club/regional environments.
• The recipient has promoted athletics opportunities in the region e.g. schools, community groups. 

ALL RECIPIENTS WERE INVITED TO WELSH ATHLETICS SENIOR & U15 CHAMPIONSHIPS AS VIP GUESTS TO BE PRESENTED WITH THEIR REGIONAL VOLUNTEER AWARD.

With many recipients being presented at the Senior Championship next weekend…

Keep an eye out for future features on these recipients!

“I would like to congratulate all recipients being recognised by their clubs for being stalwarts going the extra mile in many ways as a team captain, club historian, social secretary, coach or official. Not only supporting their club but also having a greater impact on the wider athletics community”.
