It takes A LOT to run this club. Week in and week out, dozens of volunteers play many roles in the club.

Volunteer Roles and Opportunities

The club is 100% a volunteer organization. This includes leadership across functions, for example, program management, co-leads on programs and events, coaches, race directors, event coordinators, member services & member support, gear fulfillment, and the list goes on.

Support volunteers provide coordination, mentorship, expertise, or just good old fashion sweat equity to help us enable the delivery of club programs, benefits, and services. Typical time commitment for support positions varies greatly based upon the role.

Volunteering internally with the club or externally in the community / with our partners is a great way to meet other club members and give back to the multi-sport community. Races and events could never happen without the support of volunteers!

The club is always recruiting individuals to step up and help out in many different capacities in the club. Please scroll down to find just a few examples of events where you can volunteer! We really do appreciate your help in making this THE BEST triathlon club!

Volunteer Rewards Program

We Wouldn’t Be This Awesome Without Volunteers!

The DC Triathlon Club is one of the best triathlon clubs in the nation (we think!) and this is made possible with the help of all of our volunteers! In return, we want to demonstrate our appreciation for our members’ service to the Club. Therefore, we have developed a point system that will allow club members to volunteer their way to a free yearly membership!!!

How does it work? As you know we are a 100% volunteer based club and most of our events require volunteer assistance in order to make them possible. Therefore, when you volunteer at a Club event, you will earn points. Points are determined by different factors including distance traveled, amount of time requested, etc. Members having earned at least 10 points at the end of the year will be rewarded with a free yearly membership (no kit included).

Requests for volunteers for upcoming events will indicate how many points will be allotted for that event. For example, volunteering for a local Club race will earn you 2 points whereas volunteering for an out of town event will earn you 4 points, and weekend events as many as 8 points.

Should you wish to determine how many points you have earned at any point in time, please do not hesitate to email to ask.

Thank you for your support to the Club!
