Website Help
The New Millard Aquatic Club Website
Advantages to the new MAC website:
- Ability to see only your swimmer’s particular group information and not events that don’t pertain to your desired group.
- Ability to send out immediate text messages to notify you of pool closures, practice relocations, entry deadline reminders, etc.
- Capability to post messages to other swimmers and parents regarding carpools, team outings, or other pertinent information.
- Opportunity to upload and view videos of current swimmers, training videos, and Olympians regarding stroke technique and all aspects of swimming
*You must log in to view / accomplish the following activities!*
(to log in, you must first register completely - with first and last name - on the website and await approval from the Site Manager)
When you are approved, you are able to see only the groups / news that pertain to your particular swimmer’s group (i.e. gold group swimmers can only see gold group information). This avoids confusion and from making the website ‘too busy’ for the viewer. If you are not able to see your swimmer’s group information, let MAC know. There might have been a simple mistake of group assignment which can easily be fixed.
