Team Swimsuits: While not a requirement, it is highly encouraged that each team member purchase and wear the selected team suit. Fitting for suits will be held at registration.
Volunteers: Swimming is a family sport. Our team cannot function without your help, so we ask that everyone do their part. Each family is required to volunteer a minimum of 3 times per swimmer throughout the regular season. Volunteer shifts will be assigned by our volunteer coordinator at registration. It is your responsibility to let her know IN ADVANCE if and when you have a conflict. In the event that you choose to opt out of the regular
swim season volunteer hours, a buy-out option is available for $100 per
child. Also, each family is REQUIRED to volunteer at least once per child at championships (opt out not available).
Starters and Stroke & Turn Officials: There are some “Officials Clinics” being offered before the season which you must complete if you would like to volunteer as a stroke and turn official. Or, if you would like to be involved in the computer entry side of swim meets, there is a training course available for this too. Please contact a representative for more information. Being an official is an excellent way to familiarize yourself with the rules of swimming, plus it gets you the best view on the deck.
Clean Up: At the end of each practice or meet, we need everyone to please help clean up, straighten chairs, etc.
