Volunteer Overview
Requirements
Our parent volunteers are the heart and soul of the entire operation of the BCW Barracudas Swim Team. We could not do what we do without them. Because we are a volunteer run organization, in addition to the Registration Fee, each family, regardless of residency or donation status, is required to complete a minimum of four (4) volunteer hours during the season, however, this number may change depending on final family count.
Sign-ups
You will be required to select two (2) volunteer shifts during registration and then sign-ups will open two weeks before each meet to make adjustments. Every attempt will be made to assign you according to your choices, but the Board reserves the right to make final decisions. For more information on the types of roles available, please visit our Volunteer Opportunities page. We have a limited number of non-meet jobs available for special circumstances, please contact us for more information.
Consequences
At registration, a $150 credit card hold will be placed at the time of registration and processed as a penalty if a family does not meet the volunteer minimum by the end of the season. Non-compliant families will also have to register after all other registrations are complete the following season with participation contingent upon space availability.
