We need trained officials! Below is the information from Nick Hall about online officials training on Monday.
What: Online GKAISA Officials Clinic
When: May 20th, 7:00 PM
Who: Open to all current Officials for recertification (annual clinic required) as well as New Officials looking to get involved and anyone just curious as to how Officiating works
Clinic Offering: Stroke & Turn, Starter and Deck Referee
Host: Nick Hall
How: Teams Meeting
Meeting ID: 287 198 454 114
Passcode: wSAbDA
Swim meets simply cannot run without volunteers and some of those volunteers need to be a bit more trained than others. Officiating is a great way to be involved, know more about the sport and to put yourself in the best seat in the house to observe the action. The job is not difficult but a bit of preparation is needed for certification. We're looking to make that easier for you.
This will be an easy, informative hour and a half max. We'll address the Stroke & Turn position first and if that is all you need you are free to drop off once that is completed, then we'll turn our attention to Starter and Deck Referee. Attendance will be collected and you will be added to the list of Certified Officials upon completion.
It takes a village to make summer swim fun. We have lots of opportunities for volunteers. We would love to find some folks to take on social activities, meet day theme coordination, donuts for fun day, and meet day ribbons. If you are interested please let us know!
