High School Swim Officials Training

2016/17  HIGH SCHOOL SWIM OFFICIALS TRAINING

Everyone must attend the stroke and turn portion of the clinic, but only those who will be a Starter or a Referee need to stay for the last portion of class.  You must be at least 18 years of age and NOT a High School student to become an official. Please bring a pen, pencil and highlighter to class. Please note check in for each class will be 15-30 min prior to class start time. We need you to be on time so we can ensure you get all the information you need to be a good official.

**We will have three in water Demonstration Classes this year. One in Park City, Ogden and Lehi. For those who are new or fairly new to the sport or would like some more hands on training please attend one of these clinics.  Also USA SWIMMING has produced new Training Videos for each stroke, look on www.usaswimming.org, dropdown Member services, look under officials click on Education Training, click on new Video resources. Although we do have some differences in our rules from USA these Video are excellent in introducing how officials should officiate each stroke, and introduce you to the world of swimming as an official. They also have a video on starting that is very informative. You can also find them on You Tube; Officials Training Videos by USA Swimming, 6 videos 2015. **

Once you have completed a clinic your name will be put on the Officials List for the 2015-16 Season and will be posted on the Web site www.utswimcoach.com with your certification class. Coaches will run their meets from the list of certified officials or the meet will be invalid.  Please make sure all your bases are covered, that your people attend the training they need. We have varied the dates to give four weeks of clinic dates to choose from to try to accommodate everyone. Try to have enough certified people to run your home meets. We will also notate those certified officials who are willing to work outside of their team.
Cost for a Clinic is $20.00.  Checks can be made payable to UHSCA (Utah High School Coaches Association.)
