The South Australian Motor Racing Officials Association (SAMROA) is a non profit organisation which provides volunteer trackside officials for circuit racing in South Australia. These officials being essential for the safe conduct of race meetings.

The organisation was formed in 1978 after difficulties were experienced in attracting a stable team of officials for race meetings at Adelaide International Raceway. Since this time SAMROA has developed into a group of competent officials who are well respected in the motor sport community.

SAMROA provides officials for events ranging from club level at Mallala Motor Sport Park to higher profile events such as the Clipsal 500 Adelaide, the American Le Mans Series and the Australian Grand Prix.

SAMROA is affiliated with CAMS Ltd which is the peak sanctioning body for motor
sport in Australia. CAMS has instituted a National Officiating Program which provides a licencing system and training program to ensure that all officials are properly prepared for the tasks required of them. This program also ensures consistency of officialling across the country which is not only beneficial to competitors but enables officials to travel interstate and easily fit into the organisation at other circuits.

Members come from all walks of life and are bound by a common interest in motor sport. New members are always welcome. If you are interested in becoming part of the action at motor racing you can write to SAMROA c/- PO Box 1312, Adelaide 5001 or email for more information.

General meetings of the association are held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month
commencing at 8:00pm at the Veneto Club, 6 Toogood Ave, Beverley. Everybody is
welcome to attend.
