Marlton Swim Team: Parents Wanted
Volunteers Needed

Starter
The Starter annouces the heat number, the distance to be swum, the stroke and the number of lengths. He/she then instructs the swimmers to "take your mark" and activates the starter to sound the start of the race.  The Starter also judges whether a false start has taken place.  (A)

Stroke and Turn
The Stroke and Turn Judges shall be familiar with the USA Swimming rules governing proper strokes, turns and touches for each stroke.  Judges will fill out disqualification slips for any infraction and give them to the Referee.  (H&A)

The Team Rep is responsible for the conduct of the team and acts as the liaison between the coach and the Referee.  The Team Rep also consults with the Referee on any questions pertaining to League Rules, conduct of the meet, or decisions of any official. The Team Rep is responsible for any protests involving turns, strokes and other technicalities.  (H&A)

Timers
The Timers start their watches at the same time as the flash on the starting device and stops their watch when the swimmer touches the wall.  If the watch does not work, the timer raises their hand and the Head Timer will assist them. (H&A)
