Calling all officials…

Becoming an official has never been easier - we encourage all parents to read through the process below and let us know if you are able to help support our competitions!!!

Swim England South West are currently funding the cost of Judge Level 1 Officials training. The path to qualification is much easier than it used to be, with the poolside assessment now removed and the training consisting of on-line learning, followed by poolside mentoring.

Below are the links to two documents on the SW Region website, which outline the qualification and process to register for funding:

It would be great if a few parents/guardians would consider training to become a Judge Level 1 Swimming Official. It's good fun, it guarantees you a poolside view of your swimmer and it is very much appreciated by the Club.

Should anyone feel they would be able to support in this way, please take a look at the links above. If you have any questions, or just wish to chat anything through, before registering your interest, please contact Nick Heffner by email: officials.bhsc@gmail.com.
