Club Policy For Home Meets

Hosting a swim meet is a task that requires the talents and time of all our families.

In order to ensure a fun and rewarding meet we ask that you be aware of our policies regarding participation.

We assume all swimmmers participate in our home meets - unless you inform us of other plans.

Since we are a parent run club we have always depended on at least one member from each family to work in a volunteer capacity at the meet for a minimum of two sessions. Those sessions can be all on one day or split between Saturday and Sunday. If you have a teenager they are welcome to help, though we'd like timers to be a minimum age of 15 and have good focus abilities.

If you are a single-parent family and your child is not old enough to get to his events on his own, we can assign a parent in the stands to help your child. Everyone in the club tends to be helpful!

If you choose not to volunteer please let us know, because we do assign positions to parents that we have not heard from. Otherwise in the absence of your participation we request a $25 donation to the University City Swim Club.

We thank you for helping us build team spirit and to host a meet that brings enjoyment to your swimmers.
