CVST Meet Volunteers

CVST Meet Volunteers
We hold several meets per year and we are responsible for running these meets. Meets don’t run themselves. The most important people in the meet are of course the swimmer and an official to start the race; but the timer holds the same value as the prior two.
CVST Parents are expected to participate with the running of the meet. We can’t sit on the sidelines. Timers have the best view of the meet as they are sitting the closest to the lanes. It’s easy and we will teach you and put you with an experienced person so you can learn. Again the meet will not start until all timing chairs are filled. Please don’t let the same people sit in those chairs. We will be keeping track of who volunteers at these meets. The easiest meet to learn are the Friday Night at the Races. So volunteer at these to get your feet wet (literally)!
PCL Club Meets are held in late spring. Generally if it is away; except for the Championship Meet we don’t have to time; but if it is at our pool we will need timers. CVST is known for their great volunteers so lend a hand! Your swimmer will appreciate it!
The other meets we hold are our big meets where swimmers come from everywhere. Each family is responsible for working 3 sessions at each meet. These meets are
The Boy’s and Girl’s Club Nationals
(April) and The Classic (Early June). They are held at the North Shore Pool in St. Petersburg.
If you are interested in becoming an official please see Jim. We need officials!
It is important and a requirement that each family participate in volunteering for these meets. So mark your calendars now!
If you have any questions please let us know and we will be happy to answer them. Welcome to another great season of swimming with Carrollwood Village Swim Team!
