[quote=Anonymous]About a month before the season started, one of our team reps emailed maybe a dozen or so parents who had kids 10 and younger, and who have been committed to swim team, to ask whether we would consider becoming officials. The rep clearly let us know that many of our officials had kids who were graduating soon and so we needed to train the next generation of officials. There are at least six or eight of us who took S&T training this year, and a few others getting trained in starter, referee, etc. The experienced ones have been fantastic at mentoring us newbies, very welcoming and helpful. Our team has little drama and generally is a helpful bunch. We’re mid-level MCSL. I’m glad to learn S&T and plan to learn how to become a starter/ref once I’ve done this for a few years. My kids are still young-ish, swim year-round, and I’m a capable adult. Knowing how much volunteer work it takes to run summer swim, I’m more than glad to do my part.[/quote]
