⏱️Swimming officials

Train as a timekeeper, judge or referee through British Swimming's qualification pathway. Speak to the Officials Co-ordinator.

🚌Team managers

Parent volunteers who keep galas running — logistics, paperwork and pastoral care. Speak to the Team Manager Co-ordinator.

📣Meet support

Announcing, marshalling and catering at our home meets. Speak to the Social Secretary.

💻IT team
