Adult Volunteers

Welcome to our Volunteer and Training Section, this is the place to visit if you would like to volunteer to help with the running of the club, or if you are just curious about positions you could help with or if you want to take part in more formal training as an Official, Coach or Team Manager.

A swimming club like Hemel Hempstead is built on our volunteers; just look around on any training evening and you willl see a host of coaches and poolside helpers.  And when you attend a gala you will see lots of people giving up their time;  this can range from judging, timekeeping to helping with refreshments for the poolside helpers. There is always a job for you!.

The club is virtually entirely run by volunteers;  parents, ex-swimmers and current swimmers.  So if you would like to offer your support to your swimmer and others, then please volunteer.  Contact us at volunteers@hhsc.org.uk and we are sure we can find a position suitable for you ; the more volunteers we have the better the club is.  It gives us more options to help our swimmers develop their swimming careers and more importantly to appreciate the joy of taking part in a healthy sport.

We also welcome volunteers who would like to progress their teaching or coaching with us and in return for your time as a volunteer we may be able to assist with funding for training to help you develop your qualifications and knowledge.
