Neptune Swimming Officials Information Page
Dear Neptune Families,
Our team is always in need of more officials for meets! Officiating is a great way to support our swimmers while getting a front-row view of the action, building a deeper understanding of the sport, and earning a $30 credit per session to help offset club fees. Even better - active officials are exempt from volunteer hour requirements!
Our goal is to be able to host meets fully staffed with Neptune officials, and we’d love your help in making that happen. If you’re interested in learning more, please don’t hesitate to reach out - we’re happy to answer any questions!
