Grow Your Officiating Career
Whilst this is on the international scene, our officials are integral in the delivery of our sport. It’s a great vantage point to see the swimming from, and it is a great way to be involved and support your club and the swimmers. Whether you are aspiring to follow in the footsteps of our officials listed above internationally, or you would like to help at the local competitions for your club and region, we have an opportunity for you to kickstart or upskill your officiating journey.
