Important Updates

  • Transfers - As approved by the House of Delegates (HOD) during the 2024 Annual Meeting, a swimmer may change club affiliation at the time of annual individual membership registration and up to 3 additional times during the membership year.
    • Starting Feb. 3, members will self-manage their club and workout group affiliation through their My Account portal. The guide to local operations has been updated with transfer information, a video tutorial and FAQs in preparation for members managing their own club and/or workout group transfers. We recommend membership coordinators review these resources in case they receive questions from members.
  • My Account Updates - Your My Account dashboard is your portal to member-only content; partner discounts; managing your personal information, plans, and payments; purchase add-ons; and more.
  • Volunteer Working Calendar - We've put together a working calendar which includes national events and initiatives, important registration information, deadline reminders, educational webinars, and more! 

  • LMSC Officer Updates - Please report any officer updates to Volunteer Services at the national office.
