As a club we aim to recruit and train a number of officials who can be available to help at galas. Having qualified officials is crucial to swimming without them meets can not be licensed and that means swimmers times are not officially recognised.
There are several grades of licensed officials from timekeeper through to referee .More information on the levels can be found on Swim Englands website. The training is a combination of theory and practical experience, where you will be mentored by fully qualified officials.
if you would like to join our team of officials please contact [email protected] it really makes a difference for swimmers and its a rewarding way to attend meets.
