31 May 2024

Throughout 2024 we will once again shine a spotlight on the brilliant effort volunteers make across all forms of cycling. We want to acknowledge the huge contribution volunteers make to cycling and recognise the wide variety of roles undertaken to activate, support, lead, and deliver at all levels.

Each month, we are taking nominations from across the regions and home nations. If you think someone deserves a mention, get in touch on social media, with your respective regional or national teams or via @BCLearningHub on X, formally known as Twitter.

This month we have a Limitless and Club Volunteer

Name: Eugene Kertzman

Region: South

Role: Club Vice Chair / Coach / Limitless lead

Eugene is a core member of the Sulis Scorpions club and has been hugely supportive of Limitless, disability and para-cycling. He has kindly offered additional support at specific events outside of the club's remit, such as the ParalympicsGB Discover Your Potential days, and helping to organise a round of the National Disability and Para-Series.

Eugene was instrumental in ensuring the para-series races at Odd Down were a success and not only supported and encouraged the club to be on board, provided timing equipment and logistics, and helped mentor another local club to assist and train them in event organisation.

Eugene is committed to supporting everyone - despite the club being a youth cycling club, Eugenee has a great knowledge base of the local area and has supported adults with signposting to other local cycling opportunities across the region

Lyndsey Hollands, National Disability Manager at British Cycling would like to thank Eugene for his efforts in promoting Limitless and helping it thrive and grow in the South region alongside all the other volunteering roles he undertakes.
