Neptune Swimming Officials Information Page
Our team is always in need of more officials for upcoming meets! Officiating is an excellent way to support our swimmers, gain detailed knowledge about the sport, get unobstructed views, and earn $30 credit per session to offset club fees. Being an official also removes the need for volunteer hours, as long as you are active.
Our team goal is to be able to host our own meets, with our own officials. We need your help!
