Volunteering
Volunteering Requirement
- How many hours does our family need to volunteer?
- Each family is required to volunteer the equivalent of 15 points during the regular season, with each point equaling approximately 1 hour. Typically, meets have 2 shifts, with each shift worth 2 points. Some jobs are available before and after the meet, so you won't have to worry about missing any of the action in the pool. Also, certain jobs that are harder to fill or require training, may be worth more points.
- If your swimmer attends the SSL Championship (Champs) and/or qualifies and attends Meet of Champs (MOC), there will be additional volunteer requirements for those meets.
- How do I register for parent volunteer jobs?
- Stay tuned for details with our new registration system, Sports Engine.

Volunteer points can also be completed on your behalf by other family members and/or adults. However, there are several volunteer jobs that either require training and/or a minimum age.
