REGISTRATION
Welcome to SCSC! Please follow the
step below to register with our team.
1. Before you
join our team, please talk to our head coach, Olga
Espinosa.
2. When you are ready to join our team, contact our registrar,
Kiersten Burgess, by email. Give Kiersten the
following information: first and last name of primary adult
contact, swimmer’s first, middle, and last name,
swimmer’s birthday, swimmer’s gender, swimmer’s
preferred name, email addresses, complete billing address, home
phone number, and the SCSC group your child will be starting
in. Kiersten will activate an online account for you, and
send you an email with your family’s password.
3. Once you have your
password, sign-in to your account, and change your
password by clicking on the "Change Pswd" (yellow key symbol) below
the blue toolbar.
4. After changing your
password, click on "My Account" on the left, and update all of your
family’s personal and billing information. Be sure that
all email addresses are accurate, as well as emergency contact
information. Also, while in your account, click on your
swimmer’s name to update all information in the
Member/Athlete Profile.
5. If you are transferring
to SCSC from another swim club, you will need to download and print
the TRANSFER
FORM. The
completed transfer form, along with a check made out to SCSC for
$5, should be delivered in person or mailed to the registrar,
Kiersten Burgess, on or before your swimmer’s first day in
the water. Contact Kiersten for her mailing address.
6. Unless you know you are currently registered with MSI because
you are transferring from another swim team, YOU NEED TO REGISTER
WITH MSI. To register with MSI,
please download and print the MSI REGISTRATION FORM.
The completed MSI form, along with a check made out to SCSC for
$54, should be delivered in person or mailed to the registrar,
Kiersten Burgess, on or before your swimmer’s first day in
the water. Contact Kiersten for her mailing address.
An explanation of MSI registration can be
found below.
7. On the left tool bar, go
to "Setup Auto Pay". Follow the instuctions for setting up
automatic payments from your checking account. Be sure to
click on "Save Changes". It will take a couple of weeks for
your Auto Pay option to go into effect. Therefore, for your
first SCSC session, please pay the session fee by check. Your
check should be made out to SCSC, and delivered in person or mailed
to treasurer Robert Jacobs. Contact Robert for his mailing
address.
8. In the future, you will
be able to make payments with the Auto Pay option you set up.
The Electronic Fund Transfer will occur on or after the 1st of each
month. If you have any questions about fees, please contact
the treasurer,
Robert Jacobs.
What is
MSI Registration, and why do I have to do
it?
Each year, all athletes associated with a USA
swim team must register with their LSC (local swim
committee). In Minnesota, our LSC is Minnesota Swimming,
Inc., also known as MSI. Registering with MSI provides
insurance for athletes when at practices or meets associated with a
USA team, such as St. Croix Swim Club. Registering with MSI is mandatory for all
athletes, regardless of your own family’s insurance
policies.
When you register with MSI using a year-round
registration form, your registration will expire on December 31 of
the registration year. For example, if you are registering in
the fall of 2009, you actually are completing a 2010 registration
form, and your registration won’t expire until
12/31/10. If, however, you register in the spring or summer
of a particular year and complete a seasonal application, your
registration expires immediately after the summer long-course state
meet.
One other thing, when you pay for your MSI
registration, part of the fee goes to USA swimming, and part of the
fee goes to MSI, but none of the fee goes to St. Croix Swim
Club.
Please follow the directions above, and contact
St. Croix Swim Club’s registrar Kiersten Burgess if you have
any questions on the registration process. Remember, checks
for MSI registration should be made out to SCSC, and your
registration form/payment should be given to Kiersten.
Do not mail MSI forms or payments directly to MSI.
