We’re always on the lookout for enthusiastic volunteers to join our team of qualified gala officials at D&G Swim Team. Whether you’re a seasoned swim parent or just curious about getting involved, officiating is a fantastic way to support our swimmers — and enjoy some great perks along the way!


Why Become a Gala Official?

  • Free Entry to Galas — No ticket needed when you’re on poolside.
  • Best Seat in the House — Enjoy a front-row view of all the racing action.
  • Free Lunch — Most all-day galas come with a meal on us.
  • Travel Expenses May be Covered — Travel costs are often met when you’re an official.
  • Make a Real Impact — Help local swimmers compete and succeed.

If you’re going to be at the gala anyway… why not enjoy the benefits?


Why D&G Swim Team Needs Officials

We always need more help — Our current officials are amazing, but in order for events to run and be licensed, recruitment is always ongoing. As our older swimmers and their parents move on, we need fresh faces to step up.

Having officials is a strict requirement — For some events like the Junior League, clubs must provide officials for their swimmers to compete.

Licensing our galas — More officials means we can license internal club galas, allowing swimmers’ times to be officially recorded with Swim England.


Details

You’ll need to be a D&G Swim Team member and registered with Swim England (ASA).

If you are already a qualified official, or are currently in training, do get in touch — we’d love to hear from you.
