Participant registration / Associate attendant
What is an associate attendant?
An associate attendant is responsible for a greyhound, either at a race, a trial or on a property where greyhounds are kept. For example, someone who catches greyhounds at a race meeting or assists with caring for greyhounds kept by a family member may register as an associate attendant. This registration is for a person between 14 and 18 years of age. Associate attendants must be directly supervised by an adult who holds a current attendant registration with the Commission.
An associate attendant may not box greyhounds at the start of a race, even under supervision, until they are assessed and approved by a steward to do so. If they are not approved by a steward to box a greyhound, they will have to wait until they reach 16 years of age.
