Volunteer Timers Needed!
Time Trials this Saturday, May 27th
4:30pm – 8:30pm
Sungod Pool, 7815 112 St, North Delta
Time Trials is our club’s internal meet where swimmers get a chance to race fellow Bluebacks in order to establish entry times for swim meets this season. Time trials are a few days away and we need help timing for 5 lanes and 2 parents to help with marshalling the swimmers.
Coaches will be on deck the whole time to guide swimmers through the process.
If you are new to timing there will be an opportunity to find out how easy the job of a timer is. Please arrive at 4:00 and if you need help there will be someone there to explain. Each lane needs 2 timers. Timers are able to watch their children swim!
Please use the Google Doc to sign up.

Stroke and Turn Training Sessions
As we ramp up the summer swim season we are hosting a Stroke and Turn rules clinic.
May 24 at 7:00-9:00pm
Winskill Multi-Purpose Room
This clinic is open to all, and we encourage all new and returning parents & guardians to attend. There are many benefits to learning the Stroke and Turn rules, including a better overall understanding of the rules and also the development of your swimmer. Additionally, if you choose to volunteer as a Stroke and Turn official, you get front row seats to all of the swimming at Meets!
For experienced stroke and turn officials, we also encourage you to attend, as there are some new rules and clarifications this year. To confirm your attendance please RSVP to officials.bluebacks@gmail.com.
Can’t make it? We’ve got you covered! There are several other officiating clinics being hosted by other clubs across our region. If you are interested in attending one of these, please let me know, and I will connect you with the appropriate person for registration.
