Every swim team in the Marin Swim League, including the Lucas Valley Swim Team, is run solely by parent volunteers and the success of the swim team is dependent on parent participation. We require each family sign up for a minimum of six volunteer positions PLUS one shift at the Championship meet.

Please review the job descriptions below and sign up for the jobs that appeal to you and fit your schedule.

Meet and Event assignments equal 1 position. Coordinator and Board Member slots equal 6 positions. Most jobs do not require any experience or training. For those jobs that do require some training, you will be briefed on deck or partnered with a veteran volunteer.

If you encounter problems with the online volunteer sign up process, please email mswim@lvst.org and we’ll get right back to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I’ve forgotten what I signed up for. How do I get that information?
    Go to the website under Volunteers and click on the Sign Up button. Then follow the instructions to review your jobs by entering the e-mail address you provided when signing up. You may also request that your assignments be emailed to you.
  • I need to get out of one of my positions. What should I do?
    If it is more than one week from the event/meet, go online and sign up for another assignment so that you still have a minimum of 6 positions. Then contact the Volunteer Coordinator at mswim@lvst.org with the position you need to be removed from. An email will be sent to confirm your new assignment. If its less than one week to the event/meet, it is your responsibility to find a replacement.
  • What happens if I don’t show? Or I’m significantly late?
    Missing work assignments and even being late for swim meets seriously and negatively impacts the team. A strict “Late Arrival/No Show” penalty of $100 will be assessed.
  • My schedule does not allow me time to volunteer. What can I do?
    You can pay a volunteer opt-out fee of $400. Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at mswim@lvst.org with your request to opt-out. Payment arrangements will be made at that time.
  • I only have a High School swimmer(s). How many volunteer positions should I take? Parents of High School swimmers (those swimming on a HS swim team and will not participate on the LV team until May/June) are required to volunteer for 4 positions.
