Family Volunteer Requirement
As a member of the swim/dive team, each family is required to volunteer 3 times. We will need volunteers for home meets, away meets, and SSA championships.
If your family only has 6 and under swimmer(s), your requirement is to work one meet.
If the meet is rained out and rescheduled, you are responsible for working the rescheduled meet.
Dive team families will have to work one meet/session plus at least one session at the SSA championships (if their child participates).
We also understand that some of our swimmers do not participate in meets, because of various reasons. If this is your families desire on the team please come and see me so that we may work out an alternate volunteer plan.
In order for your swim/dive team registration to be accepted, you must agree to the family work requirement.
In the event that you NOT able to fulfill your volunteer requirements, a $25/per shift charge will be applied to your account, which will need to be paid before registering for the following years membership.
