Dive Team Volunteers
VOLUNTEER INFORMATION
MCDL is a volunteer-run league, so we need the help of all parents for the program to run smoothly. Each meet needs a referee, 5 judges, 4 table workers, and an announcer. We also often need help bring snacks, water and tents to meets or putting up no-parking signs near the pool before the meet.
Parent volunteers are essential to make the meets happen!
Please note that each family is required to volunteer a minimum of two times each season.
Each role below fulfills one of the required slots:
- Table Worker - Inspects dive sheets for accuracy, records judge's scores, and computes scores. (No official training required.)
