Please see below for important information regarding Marshal training, assessment criteria and grade upgrade requirements.

- If you are collecting signatures but have run out of space in your PRC, there are continuation sheets available in the Resource Centre, or you can email volunteers@motorsportuk.org for a new PRC.
- Event attendance can be signed by someone of the same grade or higher than the Marshal who requires the signature.
- Upgrade Assessments can only be signed by Marshal Assessors holding the grade for the discipline which they are assessing and they must be the last part of the process to upgrade.
- Training Modules can only be signed by licensed Motorsport UK Trainers.
- A Training Event is a total of six hours delivered by Motorsport UK Licensed Trainers of which a minimum of two hours must be face to face. This should be completed every two years to maintain the grade/s that is held.
- The days to obtain the minimum requirements to upgrade must always be separate to the additional days required for assessment.
- A Knowledge Check is the Assessor asking questions to ensure that the Marshal has taken in enough information regarding, for instance, flags and flagging for a Race: Grade 2 (Incident) upgrade.
- If you have a question regarding your proposed upgrade, or any other marshalling query, please email volunteers@motorsportuk.org so that we can assist.
- If you require an upgrade assessment, please give the Chief Marshal of the Event as much notice as possible. It is up to you, the Marshal, to arrange your assessment with the Chief Marshal and it is not something that Motorsport UK is able to assist with.
- The 2026 Application for a Motorsport UK Marshal Registration form for upgrading is available on the Motorsport UK website within the Resource Centre HERE
- If posting paperwork for an upgrade, please always remember to take a copy before posting.
