Hints and Tips for Pit Marshals

Sheila M · 11 Dec 2005, 21:46 (Ref:1481859)

Well, I've finally had approval - we can use it for BMMC training sessions!

So, any pit marshal that would like a copy, please PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send it to you.

Some time ago I put together a booklet (with the assistance of several other people - some much more highly qualified than me!) setting out a series of hints and tips for pit marshals. After some considerable effort, this has now been approved by the BMMC and today I've received the go ahead from Chris, our Chairman, to use it in training!

That's great news Mrs M. Well done, I know a lot of work has gone into this.

Excellent - what's the chances of it being put on the BMMC website for all and sundry to read?

Do you know, I thought about that only this afternoon.

I shall enquire!

Forgot to mention, I'm working on a PowerPoint Version too!

Tracey · 13 Dec 2005, 23:07 (Ref:1483532)

Review time - it's bloody brilliant! Clear, concise and very easy to read, very informative.

Top work, Sheila!

Why thank you! I have to confess I had a lot of help though!

Sheila, speak to Peter Roberts ref the website.

Well Done Sheila - It would be good to post it somewhere public - Maybe not just where marshals will read it...Anything that helps everyones understanding of the ins & outs of marshals tasks is good news....

Please mail me a copy :-)

Well done Shiela. I know how much work you put into it and I was very impressed when you gave me a draft some sime ago.
Hope to see you in 2006

I'd just like to say thank you to all of you who have shown an interest and posted such positive comments on here.

Those of you who have now received copies will no doubt have noted the acknowledgement at the end to all those people who assisted in the production of this booklet.

I am sure that a second revision will appear very soon when the rest of you read it and add more valued information which we can all share.

Well done Sheila. The finished article was well worth the wait and will be of great help for training any Pit marshal, experienced or not.

Sheila M · 7 Jan 2006, 20:43 (Ref:1496961)

Once again, thank you all very much for your positive and encouraging comments.

I'm pleased to announce that Hints and Tips for Pit Marshals is now available as a PowerPoint Presentation. The idea behind the presentation is that the trainer would flash up the various slides and then refer to the original version for more discussion.

As always, if anyone is interested in receiving a copy of the PowerPoint version, please e-mail or PM me for a copy.

It took a lot of effort from a lot of people but we got there in the end.

Sheila M · 10 Jan 2006, 20:42 (Ref:1498878)

I've spoken to Peter Roberts and he will put Hints and Tips for Pit Marshals on the BMMC website.

Hopefully, it will be on there soon for all to read!

Hey Mick - no need for me to e-mail it to you - you can download it straight from the Marshals Club website!
And in answer to you other questions - no!
