Updated 1/7/13Q: How do swimmers sign up for swim meets? And who decides what events a swimmer should swim?A: Sign up for swim meets is done through the website. Emails are sent out notifying parents when meets areavailable for sign up. It is important to read the meet information to make sure your swimmer is eligible toswim at the meet [check to see if there are required times to enter]. Parents have found it helpful to print out thelist of events, go over it with their swimmer, and then have the swimmer discuss the events with the swimmer'shead coach [for Red/Blue/Silver/Gold - Coach Kathy Mendez; for Senior Development - Coach Josh Everett;for Seniors - Coach John Brown].All athlete entries for every meet are reviewed and approved by the Head Coaching Staff. The headCoaching Staff may add events or delete events. Final decisions on the athletes' event entries rest withthe head coaching staff. The head Age Group Coach reviews and approves all meet entries for athletes inRed, Blue, Silver, and Gold. The Head Senior Development Coach reviews and approves all meet entriesfor all Senior Development Swimmers. The Senior/Sectional/National swimmer entries are reviewed andapproved by the Head Coach/CEO.Q: I have other obligations as well. Why should I volunteer?A: The larger the number of volunteers the less of a burden on any individual. Moreover, most of the personnel youobserve at meets, while committed to provide whatever is required, have senior swimmers and will phase theirparticipation out over the next few years as their children move on to college. There are very few age group parentspositioning themselves to take over. Frankly, the ability of any volunteer organization to prosper depends directly on theinvolvement of members of the organization. The overwhelming majority of this commitment is through the Board ofDirectors and swim meets. The best reason to volunteer may very well be that volunteers have a better understanding ofCSC's internal operations and the rules under which we function during a swim meet, and are closer to the competition.We are at the meets, why not contribute to the success of the club and have more access to your child at the same time?Q: Can I specify what I volunteer for?A: Certainly. Each of us has certain talents and attributes which, when put to proper use, would benefit CSC. We also gainpersonal satisfaction in different ways. There is obviously more value to each of us as individuals, and the club in general,if we can volunteer for activities we will enjoy and will benefit the club at the same time.Q: Why do we need so many volunteers at a swim meet?A: It is important to first understand that the primary purpose of officials and timers at a meet is to ensure compliancewith the technical rules of swimming, provide a safe venue, and ensure that no one individual has an advantage overanother, in other words, to ensure a level playing field. Other functions - awards, announcer, concessions, and hospitalityprovide encouragement, information and sustenance to everyone in attendance.Q: How can I become more involved?A: Talk to any CSC officer or board member, any head coaches or your pool representative. Officers and coaches arelisted on the CSC website.Q: I still have questions. Who can I contact for more information?A: Talk to any CSC officer or board member, any of our head coaches or your pool representative. Again, officers andcoaches are listed on the CSC website.6
