TR Sharks Parent Volunteer Obligation Agreement
All families are required to volunteer 6 shifts + 1 shift at Champs (if you have a swimmer participating at Champs)
The TR Sharks swim team operates as a non-profit, 100% parent-run organization, and as such, every family is required to volunteer 6 shifts during the season. Since the meet cannot run without our volunteers, if you signed up to work at a meet, you must arrive on time for your shift or you will not receive credit. If you are unable to work a scheduled volunteer shift, it is your responsibility to make arrangements with another family to switch. You must ensure your shift is covered and notify the Sharks’ Volunteer Coordinator of the change. If you elect to attend the ISL Champs, you will also be required to perform additional volunteer duties as assigned to the Sharks by ISL.
It is also important to note that our entire TR Sharks Board is not paid. They are all volunteers giving countless hours throughout the year to the team. Please treat all Sharks Board Members, leaders, parents, and volunteers with respect and appreciation for their time given in support of organizing and securing a fun swim team season for all Sharks.
Fulfilling the volunteer obligations outlined above (and agreed to at the time of registration) is a condition of your family’s membership with the Sharks.
Failure to complete all volunteer obligations (6 shifts plus an additional shift at Champs if you have a participating swimmer) by the end of the season will subject your family to losing priority registration and/or being removed from the TR Sharks’ swim team the following season. Additionally, there is a $100 penalty per missed shift (including showing up late for a swim meet shift). The credit card on file from registration will be charged within a week of the missed shifts. If there is no card on file, we will collect six separate $100 checks when we collect your registration fee. One check will be cashed per missed or late shift.
