 How to host a COTA Event

Over the years, certain individuals have taken on the task of organizing a Columbia Observed Trials Event. It is much easier than one would think!


Here are some of the things that you should do to be considered to host an event:

 
  1. Get involved with COTA: COTA is an organization that thrives because of great volunteers who help make the club what it is today.

  2. Attend an event: Attend as a rider, minder, or spectator and look at the things going on to make the event happen.

  3. Volunteer to help out at a trial: Contact the trial marshal of the event you plan on volunteering at beforehand.

  4. Carefully review COTA Documents: The “Organiser Checklist” and the COTA rules are posted here on the COTA website.

  5. Attend the annual COTA banquet: Meet members and put your event on the calendar.

  6. Take a chance and commit to doing it: More often than not, trial marshal’s end up wanting to put more events on after their first!
