Marshals & Officials

If you are able to help in the safe and successful running of the Jim Clark Rally, please use the details below to offer your assistance.

The Beatson’s Building Supplies Jim Clark Rally requires a small army of volunteer marshals and officials to help the safe and efficient running of the event. If you think you can help, please read on…

Marshals, rescue crews, timekeepers, recovery operators and all volunteers on any motorsport event are key to ensuring the safety of all those involved in the sport. As the most popular closed road event in the UK, the Jim Clark Rally requires a significant number of volunteers both on and off the stages to run the rally.

To volunteer to marshal, you must be a Motorsport UK accredited marshal although if you are not yet accredited, you are still able to marshal on the event as we can team you up with an experienced team member for the day.

We have roles on the stages, on the timing teams and other areas of the event and if you would like to get involved, please volunteer by using the below form or contact the relevant staff member using the details below.

All Signed on volunteers will receive:

 

  1. Free Camping
  2. Marshal’s goody bag from sponsors / event
  3. Discount on food from Blackadder Mini Market and Deli
  4. Entry into the A S Performance North of England Tarmacadam Championship end of year marshal’s draw
  5. Entry into a Marshal’s prize draw.
