2025 Larkey Sharks Jobs & Committees Information

The Larkey Sharks is an all volunteer team (except for our coaching staff) and we are dependent on the involvement of the parents to make the season a success. Therefore (almost) all* team families are required to sign up for one job AND one committee each season (* some modified requirements apply for Head positions and 15/18 only families: NEW! Families whose youngest swimmer is a 15/18 NO longer need to fulfill a season long job or committee and only work jobs when their swimmer(s) attend major meets: City, Conference, Woodlands Invitational, and County).

This is a different obligation than (and in addition to) the Larkey Pool member maintenance requirement.  Jobs are typically the function of running a swim meet to include set up/clean up, starter, timing, desk, food, stroke and turn, and shepherding to get the littles to the right block on time for their race.  The committees are what makes Larkey Sharks special and fun.  These include our social events, fundraising, age-based social events, spirit week, camping, and many more.  


A FAQ document can be found by clicking here AND a document with more detailed descriptions of the Jobs and Committees that will be available for sign-up (and information about where to sign-up) can be found by clicking here.

The Jobs and Committees Heads are also listed below to the left and there is a link to each jobs description.

While participation in team responsibilities is mandatory, most jobs leave flexibility for families who need to miss some swim meets.  Absences should be arranged with each Job Head.  Failure to schedule absences and show up for jobs in a timely manner will result in a $100 fine. Three or more absences could result in the loss of swim team privileges.

Committees are key to the Larkey culture as they plan and organize all social activities.  Any member who does not fulfill their expectations will be fined up to $275.
