Parent Volunteers
The Covington Critters Swim Team is an All-Volunteer Team. At practices and meets, the coaches are there to coach. Our swim team has survived because of amazing parent volunteers!! Please help continue this tradition by signing up to help out, opportunities are listed below. While the parents are handling the various volunteer jobs, the coaches can fulfill their role to organize the swimmers for each event and watch them swim so they can provide guidance to further enhance stroke technique. We ask parents to volunteer a minimum of 5 times throughout the summer season.

Parent volunteer jobs are easy to learn and do not require previous experience. Most parents can be trained at the swim meet just before their volunteer shift.

Most of our jobs require a short-term commitment at the swim meets themselves, but we have other behind-the-scenes jobs available for those for whom volunteering at a meet is absolutely impossible. If you can't volunteer at a meet, let us know so that we can help you fulfill the volunteer requirement. If you have a special skill you think we can use…please let us know!

Please check in with the Parent Volunteer Coordinator before your scheduled shift at each swim meet.

Whether you just can’t wait to be a volunteer or are willing to help out, let us know.
