How to sign up to volunteer
· Go to www.friscoaquatics.com and log into your account
· Click on “Meet/Event Info” (hint click directly on meet/event info and not one of the choices in the drop down menu)
· In the “Current/Upcoming” tab you’ll see a list of upcoming events. If there is a “Job Signup” tab, then this is an event that you can volunteer for
· Click on the “Job Signup” button and follow the steps that are listed (see below for a summary of those steps)
o Step 1 – Find the empty slots shown as “----“
o Step 2 – Click on the checkbox for the job and time slot you want to sign up for
o Step 3 – Click the “Sign up” button
o If your account name shows up right after the check box, then you are signed up
o If you no longer want to work that job/time slot, click on the checkbox by your name and then click “remove signup” button to delete it
o If someone else’s name is in a slot then that job/slot is no longer available. The system works on a first come first serve basis
Getting credit for volunteer hours worked
· The volunteer coordinator will run a report from the system to list who has signed up for various events and will verify the hours worked
· At Frisco Aquatics sponsored events, you will need to sign in and out on the volunteer sheet. In order to get credit for those hours worked you must sign in and out.
· For those meets not sponsored by Frisco Aquatics, please send an email to volunteer@friscoaquatics.com so that your hours can be recorded
Checking the balance of your volunteer hours
· On the left you will see “My Account” in bolded letters. Under “My Account”, you’ll see “My Invoices/Payments” – click on that
· In the middle of the page will be two tabs – one for “Invoices” and another for “volunteer hours” – click on the “volunteer hours” tab
· This will show you the detail for your volunteer hours worked. Under the “worked” column you should check for the event listed and the hours worked. Under the “balance” column it will show you how many hours you still need in order to fulfill the requirement.
· Any discrepancies should be reported to the volunteer coordinator right away so that it can be corrected. To do this, simply send an email to volunteer@friscoaquatics.com.
