Technical Officials

For swim meets to run effectively, we rely on people volunteering their time and skills. In swimming, all the amazing volunteers out on pool deck are called Technical Officials or TO’s for short. These TO’s, along with other volunteers, are the backbone of swimming competitions everywhere!

Becoming a technical official is rewarding and an excellent way to contribute to the sport, spend time with your children, create great friendships and gain professional development.

New Technical Officials are always welcome and there are a variety of different roles that Technical Officials play at swim meets such as Timekeeper, Judge of Stroke, Referee or Starter. When you're ready, head to our Join page to begin your journey in officiating.
