PARENT VOLUNTEER
Lane Timers/Recorders: Responsible for timing each event accurately and recording the time on the appropriate entry card. Timers will start their clocks at the starting signal of the Starter and stop their clocks when the swimmer in their lane touches for the finish. There is one timer per team per lane per dual meet.
Ribbon Writer: Receives finish judge sheets from scorekeeper and enters information onto ribbon labels. Place ribbons in the swimmer folder at the pool deck.
Runner: Pick up entry cards from swimmers in 25 meter heats, check for the correct lane number, and deliver them to the appropriate timers prior to the start of the heat. After the heat has finished, pick up the cards for each lane, Finish Judges slips, and any DQ slips, and deliver to the scoring table.
Clerk of Course: Make sure all swimmers have their entry card in hand and filled in completely. Shall have swimmers in line in the appropriate lane and ready for the Starter signal at least two heats prior to their event.
False Start Rope/Event Board: Responsible for updating event board and dropping the false start rope in the event that such action is deemed necessary by the Starter.
Finish Judge: Responsible for determining the order of finish of every heat. Shall list the swimmers, by lane number only, in order of finish on a piece of paper that includes the event and heat number. Shall give results after each heat to the Runner, who will deliver results to the scorer table.
Score Keeper: Responsible for recording the official score throughout the course of the entire meet. Shall clip together the event sheets (entry card, finish judge slips, and DQ slips) and pass to the statistics table.
Backup Timer: Starts his or her stopwatch with the start of each heat, in the event that there is a stopwatch that does not function properly or that is not started, to time an individual lane. The backup timer must watch for a raised hand in any lane being timed. This will indicate the need for the backup timer to come to that particular lane in order to finish timing that swimmer.
The following volunteer positions require training. Anyone volunteering in these positions must either have current
MOWSC participants compete under the rules and regulations of USA Swimming. It is helpful if volunteers considering these positions have some understanding of competitive swimming, not to feel overwhelmed by the amount of information covered in these clinics as it relates to the legal way to swim every stroke and the rules regarding legal starts and turns.
Referee: Shall have full authority over all officials and shall enforce all applicable rules and shall decide all questions relating to the actual conduct of the meet. Must have complete knowledge and understanding of all rules governing competition in MOWSC, including USA Swimming Rules and Regulations. Must attend clinic or be USS Certified with current year credentials.
Starter: Responsible for providing a fair start for all swimmers and is responsible for calling false starts. Must attend clinic or be USS Certified with current year credentials.
Stroke and Turn Judge: Shall ensure that all rules relating to the style of swimming designated for the event are being observed and shall report any violations to the Referee on signed slips of paper detailing the event, the heat number, the lane number, swimmer name, and the infraction. Must attend clinic or be USS Certified with current year credentials.

HEATS & SCORING
Each event may consist of multiple heats, depending on the total of swimmers from each team participating. Only the first heat of each event is a "live" heat, counting points for the teams score. Subsequent heats are called exhibition heats and are scored separately. Yellow cards denote LIVE heats and white cards denote EXHIBITION heats.
