OFFICIALS CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

HOME SANCTIONED SWIM MEET OFFICIALS CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

In the last few years Swim BC has changed many time standards for swimmers in various age groups and the number of qualifying events necessary to attend provincial championships. There is a requirement of hosting a sanctioned swim meet applied to all clubs. Swim B.C.'s requirements are that all volunteers on deck acting in official positions during a sanctioned swim meet must be registered and have completed a small online read and online quiz to certify themselves. Examples of official positions are timers, stroke and turn, marshalling, chief timer, starter, or meet manager. For those of you who participated in last years' swim meet in officials positions, you will registered and signed off as certified. However, please review the positions online through Swim BC. To run our Smithers swim meet on February 23/24, we will need the commitment of about 20 people.
