Officials Deposit

Cascade charges a $150 officials deposit to your Cascade family account when you register for the current season, regardless of how many swimmers you register. This deposit is charged only once, regardless of how many swimmers you register, and is refundable once a family member completes an officiating clinic and works as an official at Cascade-hosted swim meets. If a family does not participate in this way, the deposit is not refunded.  This incentive helps ensure that the club has enough qualified officials helping out to support the meets, making the events fun and successful for everyone.

How do you receive the Officials Deposit Refund? (the requirements)

Cascade will refund $150 to your family account if you complete both of the following during the current swim season, from September to the deadline in June: (1) complete a new officiating clinic for the first time, and (2) work that position at least once at a Cascade-hosted swim meet.

You qualify to receive the refund if at a Cascade-hosted swim meet during the current swim season:

• You completed both of the first 2 officiating clinics for new officials, Intro to Officiating (Timekeeper) AND Safety Marshal, AND also worked as a Timer.

OR

• You completed any other single officiating clinic for the first time AND shadowed in that position.

​​​​​​​OR

• You shadowed/worked electronics for the first time.  You do not need to complete an electronics (CJE, CFJ) clinic.

Please note that Cascade does not provide a refund for any clinics or shadows that were completed outside of the current season or after the officials deposit refund deadline.
