The Collingrove Hillclimb events held throughout the year are some of the most popular motorsport events held in South Australia, but none of them can go ahead without the assistance from the volunteer officials.

One particular official has provided ongoing assistance to the Sporting Car Club of South Australia, the events’ organising club for many years, to ensure the events continue to run safely and smoothly.

James Whelan is a passionate motorsport fan and always goes above and beyond to assist with events.

Although he is an experienced Steward, James always makes himself available to help with any role, whether that be in a flag point, starter, secretary, clerk of course or steward role.

James, a valued asset to the South Australian motorsport community, is a team player who has educated himself to be able to undertake any role required of him and always to the highest standard possible.

Whelan’s peers consider him a great, passionate and dedicated team player. His commitment to being a motorsport official is second to none.

To thank James for his invaluable contribution to the sport, he will receive a $100 Supercheap Auto gift card, commemorative pin and certificate.
