SCRATCH
RULES:
TIME
SPLITS:
EVENTS:
Scratches are to be made at the Clerk of Course desk 30 minutes prior to the start of
each session. No scratch penalty shall be imposed for late or day of scratches
The procedure for obtaining an 'Official Split' now requires that coaches make the request
to the session referee or meet management on the “Official Split Request” form prior to the
race. The split for the lead-off leg in relays will still be regarded as an official split and
therefore no request by coaches is needed for relays. However, in the new 'mixed gender'
relays, lead-off times/splits are not considered “official splits' as per international practice.
Meet management requires that any coach wishing to rely on a time achieved by the swimmer
for an interval shorter than the total distance of the event shall so advise the Referee prior to
the commencement of the session (or event) in question.
All events will be timed finals.
All Relay events will be timed finals.
Swimmers will be seeded slowest to fastest for all events,
except 400m events, which will be seeded fastest to slowest.
