OFFICIALS

 
Welcome to the Officials Section of Virginia Swimming, Inc.  We have designed this section to be a one-stop repository of information important to swim officiating within our LSC.  It is divided into appropriate sub-pages to organize the information.  Most of the information is static. But, when we make a change to a document, we'll add a note on this page indicating a change has been posted.

News and Announcements

USA Swimming Online testing is back up.  Don't forget to use the 2008 rulebook.

Both of the USA Swimming summer national meets are short officials.  If you want to work a national meet and you're available, this is a great chance (you don't have to be N3)!  Even though the application deadline has passed, you can still get in.  Send in your application ASAP!

Our LSC Championships Meets are coming up next month.
We need your help to make these meets successful for our athletes.  Please give serious consideration to participating and 
sign up to work as your schedule allows.  Both Age Group Champs and Senior Champs will be approved OQMs and we'll have National Evaluators attending.

Since our Senior Championships will be held in Cary, NC, we especially need help from any of you who can come down.  We really want to be able to have a full deck, as we always do.  We're working with NCS to get some of their officials to help.  It will be a great opportunity to get some national-level experience and evaluations.  Joel Black, Dick and Nancy Nelson, and James Newberry will be there as Evaluators - all have significant National Championship experience and Joel is on the National Officials Committee.  It's a nice facility and it'll be a great meet - please come join us!
