New Officials Needed

We are looking to add 2 or 3 new swim officials this summer swim season. The following provides some details.

  • No experience necessary! Only requirements are that you own a white shirt, blue shorts, comfy shoes/sandals, and cool sunglasses.
  • How much swim stroke knowledge do you need? None! All new and old officials are required to attend one 1-hour pre-season training session. This could be either April 23rd at 9am or May 9th at 5:30pm - both in the Dells. If neither of these work for you, then we can figure out an alternative.
  • All new officials will shadow our current swim officials for about 3 or 4 meets - or until they feel comfortable. This is the best way to learn the strokes and meet procedures.
  • Each dual meet needs 5 officials - one at each corner of the pool and a starter. We currently have 4 Cuda officials. The away team also provides one official. We obviously need more officials!
  • Pros: You get the best view of the meet! Looks great on a resume! Get to trick your friends and family members that you know something about swimming! And sometimes you get free water!
  • Con: You might DQ your kid - but great chance they forget in 20 or 30 years. No seriously, our officials' purpose is not to DQ swimmers. Officials try to keep the meet fair; along with our other volunteers, keep the meet running smoothly; and have lots of fun!
