What Are Opportunities to Volunteer?
- TTSC home swim meets are an important source of revenue for our team. Volunteers play a significant role at our home meets; we need every family’s help to make them successful. A typical home meet requires approximately 530 total hours of volunteer efforts including lane timers, deck monitors, bathroom monitors, concessions, bull pen and more.
- Away meets provide another opportunity to collect volunteer hours through lane timing. Typically, TTSC is assigned a lane with the expectation that our club will provide timers. Each club runs their timing needs different. If advance notification is given, we’ll add it to our MEETS/EVENTS schedule. If not, the clubs expectation is for our families to volunteer at least one hour of their time during the meet in our assigned lane.
- Team parties provide an opportunity for all swimmers and families to come together. Volunteers are needed at these events for set up, food handling, clean up and more.
- Swim meets could not operate without our TTSC Officials. Swim families who undergo training, certification and participation at meets during the season will have met their ENTIRE volunteer commitment.
- Our organization is governed by a Board of Directors and Members At Large. Swim families making the commitment to these positions will have met their ENTIRE volunteer commitment.
How Do I Sign Up?
Before each meet or event, job sign-ups will be posted online along with a brief description of the job duties associated with each position. Each family is responsible for visiting the website and signing up for a job. Choice of jobs is usually first come/ first served, but occasionally the volunteer coordinator may have to assign/ re-assign people where needed or based on the job requirements.
