If you’re a current or aspiring motorsport radio marshal - from any club or background - come and join us for an in-depth Radio Marshals Training Day on Saturday 30 August. Hosted by the SMMC Safety Radio Group, it’s open to anyone interested in rally radio, whether you’re just starting out or looking to build on your experience.

Radio marshals are the critical link between the rally stage and control - often the first to report an incident and the first to initiate a response. Your voice helps protect competitors, spectators, and fellow marshals alike.

That’s why training matters - to ensure your comms are calm, clear, and effective when it counts most.
