March 27, 2020: At this time we are hoping for a more “normal” swim season for 2021 and would like to get back to the 10 sessions required to continue certification into 2022. That being said, we know this spring/year is not “normal”, so that may not be possible (do not know what the future holds). At this point, the session requirements for 2021 will be somewhere between 4 and 10 sessions. The Illinois Officials Committee will continue to update the session requirements as we observe the 2021 swim season activities.
