Official/Commissaire - How to become one?

Commissaires are the officials of the cycling world. Regardless of the level of competition, having qualified sports officials brings value through alignment with cycling best practice, upholds the integrity and due process in competition, and encourages the right values and etiquette of the sport.

Our officials are critical in setting a fun, enjoyable and safe environment where the sporting rules are respected. They support event organisers, contribute to the improvement of the quality of races and are fully involved in the development of the rules of cycling. 

A Commissaire can assist with a wide variety of tasks including course selection, venue layout, program, schedule and advise on the rules of racing.

Commissaires in Australia are educated and developed by AusCycling through a series of programs that ensure competency and the development of key skills of the sport.
