Provincial C MTB Commissaire Course Details
March 29, 2009 Toronto

In sports it is important to have a neutral party at the events to ensure fair play and safety. Cycling is no different. We call our race officials "commissaires". With experience, commissaires can move up the ranks just like an athlete.

The racing community is in need of cycling officials for XC/DH/4X events in Ontario and we are asking each club in this area to provide individuals to participate in this course.

The one day course will be taught by National Commissaire Dave Horyn. This course is a requirement for all new MTB commissaires and MTB managers. The fee is $100. Attendees are entitled to a $50 rebate if they volunteer as a technical assistant at an OCA MTB event. Please note that to be eligible for regular race assignments as commissaires; attendees must purchase a commissaire licence upon successful completion of the course. The commissaire designation can be added to an existing UCI licence at no extra charge. The course is limited to 12 participants.
