The Nation's Capital Swim Club greatly appreciates the service hours that our families put in on a yearly basis. It takes a lot of volunteers to run the swim meets and make these events possible for our swimmers.

Thus, we have a service hours requirement in order to successfully run the meets we host and attend. We expect all our families to lend a helping hand in our efforts to continually support our swimmers.

Accounts failing to meet the required hours will be charged $150.00 per family.
This does not apply to swimmers in groups that do not compete.

Hour requirements for April 1, 2025 - April 1, 2026

All hours submitted from April 2025-August 2025 will be placed on families' accounts in September of 2025

The hour requirements are based upon each swim session being approximately 3-4 hours. 
Below are the number of hours each account agrees to perform based upon the number of swimmers:

Obtaining Service Hours:

1. Sign Up!
All Service Hour sign-ups will be done through Sign-up Genius and other potential programs for the meets. PVSWIM.org has a list of all the meets. By selecting the name of the meet, you will be taken to the meet information with the link to sign up. Signs-ups are typically available 1 week before the meet. The Team that is hosting the meet is in charge of the sign up. This means we (NCAP) do not always make them or are in charge of organizing them. PVS Meet Schedule

2. Check in
To ensure you receive your hours, you ALWAYS need to check in at the event. It is the only way we know you have been to the event and volunteered. There will be sign-in sheets at every meet for volunteers. 

• Write your name legibly (Best if name matches Account name)
• Put your team as NCAP 

Most meets are always in need of Volunteers. So if you didn't sign up beforehand, you can always come on deck to see if they need more help. Be sure to check in when you do so and take a picture of the sign-in form. 

3. Submit Hours
After performing the service, please submit your hours through the NCAP Volunteer Form. This helps us track hours and credit your account. Also, be sure to submit proof of service so we can verify your hours afterward.

4. Proof of Service 
After completing the form, Submit Proof of Service by emailing proof to [email protected].
Any of the following options can qualify as proof of Service:
- Picture of Timer Sign-in Sheet
- Screenshot of Sign up Genius or Sign up list online
- Picture of you performing the Service... Smile!

* IF you forget to document proof of service we understand and will look to other uploaded images of timer sign-ins to verify your service as long as the Google Form is completed.

Thank you for your service!

5. Track your hours in your account

You can log into your account on teamunify and see your service hours.

Please understand we have a large number of hours to enter annually and it takes time to accurately records them. Most hours are updated within 4 weeks of the event.
