Just a reminder;

We recommend that all swimmers wear club swimming caps.  I know it's early in the season especially for new swimmers and club stocks may be low but it does make it easier to identify swimmers if they are wearing a club cap. 

Swimwear - as our pennant meets are approved qualifying meets (where times are recorded on the national database) we need to adhere to swimwear rules. 

Girls - one or two piece bathers - no bikini tops or bottoms to be worn underneath one piece costume,

Boys - speedos, trunks or knee length - only one item of swimwear to be worn

 

No rash vests or boardies whilst competing

 

If you have any questions regarding swimwear or competition rules, please speak to your club coach or District Referee Diana Lyons.
