My kid doesn't want to compete at meets. Do we still have to do jobs? The only exceptions to full job responsibility apply to parents with Little Rays only swimmers or with 15-8 only swimmers, as noted above. Otherwise, while a swimmer is not required to compete, our team still has the obligation to provide volunteers to staff all swim meets. Swimmers depend on parent volunteers to make their races possible. Every family is responsible for the specified number of jobs of the season. Please review the calendar of events early and determine the meets where you can volunteer. When unable, you must provide a replacement volunteer (family member or friend) to perform the job for you.
