Dresden Dorados

Our swim meets are run by parent volunteers. Each FAMILY is EXPECTED to VOLUNTEER for at least 1 job per swimmer, per season...and we may need you for a 2nd job if our team is smaller than usual. 

Below is the list of jobs that must be done for every meet. Most of the jobs are EASY! Parents can sign up for meet jobs during registration or when declaring swimmers for meets. Scroll down for step-by-step instructions and training videos. Ask questions - we are here to coach you too!!!  

• ANNOUNCER – announce events during home meets
• AWARDS – label and sort ribbons after the meet on Thursdays during practice
• BULLPEN WORKER – check in swimmers and line them up behind the blocks for races
• MEET MANAGER – enter entry changes, times, and DQs into meet management software during home meets (a little training in advance is required for this job)
• MEET SET UP - help prepare the facility and set up meet equipment for HOME meets
• MEET TEAR DOWN - help clean up the facility and put away meet equipment immediately after HOME meets
• OFFICIALS (Stroke/Turn Judges) – observe races for casual compliance during home and away meets (league training is required for this job) 
• RUNNER – pick up/deliver time sheets to scorer’s table during home meets
• TIMERS – time the races at home and away meets
