TITANS REGISTRATION FAQ

Q:  How do I determine what group to register for?

A:  If you are a NEW swimmer, please contact Coach Matt ([email protected]) for an evaluation.  

If you are a RETURNING swimmer, please register for the group recommended by your coach.

If you have not previously discussed group placement with a TITANS swim coach, please feel free to email us at any time to inquire about group placement. Group placement is based on an individual swimmer's experience, age, goals, commitment level, and needs. Please refer to our "Group Placement and Criteria" under the "Swim TITANS" tab.

NOTE: Jr. TITANS and Teen TITANS swimmers are not eligible for multiple swimmer discounts due to the flexibility of their programs.

 

Q: What is the Endowment Fund?

A: The Triangle Aquatic Center (“TAC”) Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that TAC is able to serve the year-round aquatic needs of the Triangle community for generations to come. As a result, TAC has established a yearly, non-refundable, Endowment Fund (“Endowment”) to support the long-term mission, financial health, and vitality of this nonprofit organization. Establishing an endowment is a common practice among nonprofit organizations in order to create long-term financial sustainability. Beginning September 1, 2018, a percentage of revenue from all TAC program fees, a Family Contribution from selected TAC TITANS swimming groups, and community donations will be used to fund the Endowment. 

 

Q. Is there a Volunteer Requirement (Service Credit Policy)?

Yes! The TAC TITANS rely on member families to facilitate TITANS meets in order to provide a positive experience for swimmers and spectators. As the leading nonprofit aquatic facility in North Carolina, we strive to keep our pricing competitive. In order to effectively balance competitive pricing and keep travel costs at a minimum for TITANS families, we regularly host home swim meets in our world-class facility. As a result, we need sufficient coverage at swim meets and team events by our TITANS member families. Please read the service credit policy in detail during registration.
