How to sign-up?

  • Go to our website: https://www.gomotionapp.com/team/ntypbsc/page/home

  • On the main page – click on Events

  • Next to the Oct 18 Time Trial Event – click on the Job Signup button

  • You’ll be asked to sign-in (use the same family account email and password used for registration)

  • Select which job and session you would like to help with

  • Not working? Simply email Lea ([email protected]) indicating which session you can help out at.   

It takes more than 20 parent volunteers to run the time trials. If this is new to you, sign up as a timer and you’ll get paired with some more experienced parents. It’s a great way to get to meet more of our swim club community and see some excited swimmers race! 

 

Volunteer needed to coordinate a fundraising opportunity!

We are looking for a volunteer to coordinate a fundraising opportunity! The next campaign starts January 2025. If organizing this campaign is of interest to you, please have a look.
