Swimming WA Technical Officials - Setting the Standard!
The role of the Technical Official is fundamental to swimming, no matter where you swim in this vast State. Swimming WA is fortunate to have officials that are FINA accredited and have experience at state, national and international level. These dedicated volunteers donate their time week in, week out, to ensure that their Club and the swimmers have the opportunity to reach that all-important official time.
Swimming WA works with the TEO Committee each year to provide professional development opportunities and accreditation courses throughout the year. As every Swimming WA Club must have at least one Technical Official, we are always looking for volunteers who want to 'set the standard'.
There are a variety of roles that TO's can be involved in as part of a swim meet.
Technical Official roles include:
- Check Starter
- Clerk of Course (Marshal)
- Inspector of Turns
- Judge of Stroke
- AOE Operator
- Meet Manager Operator
- Starter
- Referee
