First step - Define the Event What type of event are you promoting Described in the Regulations • What should the event deliver? • What are basic thoughts? e.g. Promote Motorsport, Encourage Newcomers, Make Money etc MSA Club Seminar 2016
Regulations • Must define the event clearly and comprehensively • Describes the What, Where, When of the event MSA Club Seminar 2016
