VIRTUAL WINTER DIVISIONAL & PROVINCIAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

As an alternative to our recently cancelled provincial competitions, Swim BC will be ‘hosting’ the “Virtual Winter Divisional Championships” and “Virtual Winter Provincial Championships” for all eligible swimmers.

Swims may be completed in a sanctioned or unsanctioned time trial. Honesty will be the best policy when submitting times – the best outcome is to ensure swims are completed in a ‘race’ or ‘race rehearsal’ environment.

Swim BC will be supporting the event by posting psych sheets and meet results and issuing virtual awards.
