We are required to provide volunteers for the following jobs:

CARD READER: Sits next to the Electronic Scorer and reads off the swim times from the entry card or timer sheet. Helps electronic scorer double check the accuracy of entries into the computer. 

CLERK OF COURSE: The Clerk of Course seats the swimmers from both teams in chairs prior to moving to the pool deck behind the blocks. He/she is responsible for double-checking the event slip and seating the swimmer in the proper lane and heat. 

ELECTRONIC SCORER: The Electronic Scorer enters the swim times of each of our swimmers and the points earned by our team into the scoring computer program Meet Manager.  

FINISH JUDGE: The Finish Judge notes the order of finish for each event and each heat. The event and heat numbers called out by the Starter must be listed on the finish sheet. Their initials should also be listed as this helps if questions arise. The slips must be held up so that a runner can pick them up and take them to the Scorer's Table.

LANE TIMERS: Timers ensure that the proper swimmer is in their lane prior to event start. Timers record the time from their stopwatch on the event slip for the swimmer getting out of the water and holds it up for the runner to pick up and take to the Scorer's Table. 

READY-BENCH (MARSHALL/SPOTTER): Line the swimmers up in the correct event, heat and lane order and take them to their correct positions behind the blocks (similar to our Marshall/Spotter). 

PLACER/SORTER: The Placer/Sorter aligns event cards in order of finish, attaches any DQ sheets to event cards, clips the event cards together by heat with clothespins, and gives the event cards to the Scorer. 

RELAY JUMP JUDGE (Relays Only—Works Both 1st and 2nd shifts) Observes relay take-off and calls infractions as directed by the Referee. The Relay Judge determines whether the departing swimmer is in contact with the starting platform or pool deck at the time the incoming swimmer touches the end of the pool. 

RUNNER: Runners pick up event cards and judge's sheets at the conclusion or each event and deliver them to the Scoring Table.  

STROKE & TURN JUDGE (Certification Required): Observes swimmers in lanes designated by Referee and calls rule infractions. GKAISA training and bi-annual certification are required for this position.

Thanks!
