We are so excited for the start of the summer swim season here
in Kingsmill! Online registration opens on Monday, May 1 at 9am Here are a few
reminders:

Registration process:

1.The registration link will be emailed on May 1 or you may go
directly to our website: https://kingsmillsharks.swimtopia.com/

2.Once
you click the link, the system will ask the routine questions and ask you to
accept the required waivers. These must be completed for a registration to be
valid.

3.Families
are required to sign up for 6 points worth of volunteer commitments. All of the
positions are half meets (1 point). Regardless of what you chose to work, you
must sign up for a minimum of 6 points. For example, some may choose to work 6
half meets, others may choose to work 3 whole meets. Please understand that
this is a first come- first served sign up, so register early to get the
position you want. If you are a core volunteer (officials, scorers, concession
leads etc....) you have already been assigned and will not be required to sign
up at registration. Your schedule will be assigned separate of the system. If
you are interested in a core position, please let us know. We are always
looking for enthusiastic Shark parents.

4.The
registration fee is $140/swimmer and will be paid online during registration.

5.Once
you have successfully registered and paid, you will receive an email
confirmation.

Please
note that anyone who registers and pays by May 15th will receive a free 2023 Kingsmill Sharks
t-shirt to be delivered at Meet the Coaches Night on
Wednesday May 24th. After the 15th, they will be for sale. All registered swimmers will receive a team
latex swim cap.



No swimmer will be allowed to participate until registration is completed and
paid in full.

The
meet and practice schedules are posted on https://kingsmillsharks.swimtopia.com/
