Swimming clubs rely on parent /carers volunteers so our swimmers can compete at galas, attend swim camps and for the operations of the club itself.

Parents /carers participate in a wide range of roles with the club:

• Officials who make galas and meets happen (e.g. timing officials, judges)

• Team Managers who supervise and safeguard kids (e.g. at galas, meets, swim camps)

• Trustees and Committee members (e.g. chair, treasurer, operations, membership, secretary, website, kit, swim camps)

• Coaches (e.g. assistant swim coach)

• Poolside helpers who assist the coaches

 

Organisers expect clubs to provide a quota of volunteers, or we don't get invited, can be fined, and in the worst case they have to cancel the whole event. We particularly need parents/carers as officials and time keepers.

​

Hackney Anaconda is run entirely by parent/carer volunteers - and without you there would be no club.

What’s in it for you:

• Get actively involved in your child’s swimming development

• Watch and support your child poolside at galas

• Personal Development – you learn more about swimming

• Save money at meets and events (free lunch, no spectator/ parking fees)

• You help ensure that galas can take place

• Keep Anaconda going as an active community club

​​

Did you know that when there are not enough officials, galas get cancelled at short notice and can create disappointment and impact our swimmers progress!
