TBF Racing Key Staff 2009-2010
TBF Racing began in 1998 with the Granite Bay Triathlon. Since then we have put on over 250 Multi-Sport Events in Northern California. We have developed a reputation as a company that cares about the athletes that race with us. A big part of the success of our events is the Key Staff working at our races and the volunteers participating as part of our Race for FREE Athlete Volunteer Program.
Each year we bring on new Key Staff, individuals who are interested in being part of our dynamic team. These individuals help create an environment of energy, enthusiasm and fun at all of our events. They also insure that our events are safe, start on time, and are accurate with all of our timing and awards. Without the TBF Racing Key Staff we could not bring you the professional events for which we are known.
New in 2009 will be TBF Racing Staff Positions – in addition to our TBF Racing Key Staff Positions. The TBF Racing Staff Positions will involve working only one-day per event weekend: either Saturday or Sunday. Whereas the TBF Racing Key Staff will work both race days: Saturday and Sunday.
Both the TBF Racing Key Staff and Staff will be present at all of our events – and some Key Staff members will also do additional work before or after the event weekends. The annual season for our both begins in May with our New Roseville TRI for KIDS Triathlon and then proceeds with our TRI for FUN and Tri for Real events at Rancho Seco Park during the summer. Our season officially lasts until the following April, ending with the ICE Breaker Triathlon. This includes 17 weekends of racing as listed below: |
