HOW TO BECOME A GEORGIA SWIMMING OFFICIAL

Top 10 Reasons to Become a Georgia Swimming Official: 

 ¨ Support the team with your time as a volunteer.

¨  Be on deck with your kids at swim meets.  There’s no better view of the pool.

¨  Learn more about the sport of swimming (don’t you wish you knew why your child dq’d?  What does non-continuous turning action mean anyway?)

¨  Because you’re a valued volunteer, be well-taken care of with:

¨  Free heat sheets (you’ll actually know the heat and lane assignments)

¨  Free food

¨  Free admission

¨  Since United States Swimming is a tax-exempt charitable organization, volunteer expenses such as mileage, hotel, and meals are potentially tax-deductible.

¨  Nice people who will mentor you in the sport (Officials really are nice once you get to know them!)

¨  You can make a difference!  Don’t sit in the stands and get a sore back, stand up and be involved with the swimmers on deck ;-)

Questions?  Contact Georgia Swimming Officials Training Chairperson, Rob Schreer (h2oref@bellsouth.net).   Officials clinics are offered seasonally.  Don’t miss your chance this season become certified.

ARE YOU TIRED OF:

ü  spending the weekend in that hot/humid place?

ü  the smell of chlorine?

ü  crowds blocking your view?

ü  sitting on those hard bleachers all day?

ü  hunting for a good book to read?

ü  deciding what to wear?

WELL…..

We can’t help you with the first two but look out because we can make the last four become history.

We have the book that will lead you from your backside to the pool side after just one short formal training session.

The book is USA Swimming Rules and Regulations and it comes in two convenient sizes.

Join Georgia Swimming Officials, participate in our “Home School” program, attend a single formal training session, pass an “open book” exam, complete a short apprentice program (on-the-job training) and become a certified swim official. Put on the blue shorts, skirt, or pants with a white polo shirt and join us on deck.

 

Officiating swim meets counts toward your families “Volunteer” contribution.  No prior experience necessary, will train qualified individuals for entry level positions.
