Every year we push the limits and offer athletes and spectators an unforgettable experience. The growth of our event would not be possible without the individuals that give up their weekend to ensure our success.
We would be honored to have your help. We are grateful for your commitment and admire your passion.
Read below for more information about the various volunteer categories and sign up.
As a Judging Volunteer you will be on Team Integrity. As you are well aware our sport depends largely on the ability of the judge to be fair, accurate, and consistent. The quality of the judging at any event is usually indicative of its reputation and in large part, its success. You will be asked to judge an athlete based on their ability to adhere to the standards we set, as well as count their repetitions.
They are both of equal importance. You also may be asked to fulfill other similar duties outside of this scope. However, judging will be your primary responsibility.
The French Throwdown is seeking individuals that love dealing with people, and more specifically athletes, for the very important role of Athlete Relations. Help ensure that those in attendance at this year’s edition brag about how well they were treated by staff;
this team is instrumental in just that. Those in this group will handle such responsibilities as meeting and greeting, athlete and volunteer check-in and corralling. These individuals are vital to the all-around experience, and should pride themselves on effective communication. You will have a lot of interaction with them. This team is therefore crucial to the smooth running of the FTD.
The production of this event requires the moving of large loads, long distances, quickly. Expect to be fulfilling roles such as setting up, breaking down, and ensuring no barbell is left without its clips! This is a very crucial role that will make sure our event runs smooth and on time, which is of the upmost importance to our success. You also may be asked to fulfill other similar duties outside of this scope.
The Shepherd team is one of the key of the French Throwdown. In this team, you will be a key member responsible of the good flow of the competition. Your key task will be to make sure athletes are at the right place and at the right time.You will develop a special bond with them during the competition and will be part of a team with an important role at the competition. If you enjoy being on time, human contact and being rigorous then this team is for you.
