🤝 Parent Commitment
The following Parent Participation Code is in effect throughout the season. In 2026, the volunteer requirement is 25 hours per family plus assistance with one social event.
As all returning Kingfish parents know (and new families will quickly learn!), it takes a countless volunteer hours and effort to run a swim season.
- Swim meets typically require up to 50 parent volunteers to fill essential roles such as timers, officials, and concessions. And beyond the pool, additional help is needed at social events to bring the Kingfish spirit and joy to our swimmers!
- Families should plan to volunteer at any meet where their swimmer is participating.
- With the exception of certified Officials, most roles are easy to learn and take just a few minutes of instruction.
📅 Time Trials (Required for All Families)
All parents are expected to volunteer at Time Trials (Saturday, June 6, 2026). This internal meet sets each swimmer’s starting times and requires extra volunteers since there is no opposing team. It’s also a great opportunity to try new roles (or shadow) and meet other Kingfish families.

🐟 Pre-Team Families
Pre-Team parents are asked to volunteer for at least one home meet. Pre-Team swimmers are part of the Kingfish family and can participate in team activities. If a swimmer moves up to Team, the family’s volunteer commitment will increase to the full team requirement.
