BECOME A MARSHAL

As a SAMF marshal or volunteer, you'll work trackside and behind the scenes to keep competitors, officials and spectators safe, and get closer to the action than anyone else. Create one SAMF account, submit your volunteer application, and our team will review it. Once you're approved, you'll receive your digital Volunteer ID.
