Helping out at our time trials and swim meets is a critical part of being a swim parent! Luckily, it is very easy to get involved!

Benefits of being an official:

1. You are a critical part of the team - we can't do all of our awesome swim meets and trials without the key volunteers who time the swimmers and make sure that the event is fair for everyone

2. You get to be on deck! Our officials are the only parents allowed on the deck during these events - this means you are up close and get to see all of the action first hand.

Becoming and official for the 2025 Summer Swim year is easy!

1. Reach out to our officials co-ordinator Marianne (emailed: smbbofficials@gmail.com) and let her know you are interested 

2. I will email you a link to register as an official for this upcoming year

3. You will be linked to the online system that allows you to sign up, and do some of the introductory courses online - you can only participate in our events as an official after your courses are completed (they are short and straightforward)

4. Sign up to help out! We will have the option in our events to sign up to participate as an official in a role you are trained in.
