Volunteers
NACSW trials are not possible without volunteers. Full day or half day volunteers are much appreciated. Unlike other organizations you are not able to volunteer for a trial in which you are competing but if you are only entered in part of the day you are able to volunteer for the other part. For example you are entered on Sunday in the NW1 but not the L1C; you may volunteer for the L1C.
