PARENT MEETING NOTES (Friday Sept. 5th 2025)

 

USA SWIMMING REGISTRATION HELP NOTES:

 

MEET MARSHALLS:

If you want to volunteer as a Meet Marshall at a swim meet you need to get certified.  It is a very simple process.  Log into your USA Swimming Account and go to Education / Course Catalog.  Look for Meet Marshall quiz (they are listed alphabetically).  Once you complete and pass the quiz send a copy of the certificate to the Team Manager:  Lorena Caballero at [email protected].

If you are not the account holder, and your spouse is, you need to create your own account so the certificate and test is in your name.

Once you complete it, it doesn't expire which means you never have to take it again.

Here are two documents with information on what entails being a Meet Marshall
