2010 Officiating

2010 City Meet Officials Assignments can be found here.

RCSL relies on parents to assist with running the swim meets. This includes meet officials and stroke and turn judges. Please consider volunteering to become a meet official! It's easy to do and is critical to your team.

Here is the current list of RCSL officials (pdf file posted 07/06/10 am)

Certification and Recertification tests for all officials are administered by an online test service, www.classmarker.com. A valid user name and password is required to access and take the tests. Contact Steve Henderson to obtain proper access data. Include your First and Last Name, Pool, Address, Phone, and Email in your request.

Here is a guide to the certification process (pdf file posted 05/12/10)

Video Training and Deck Training are required for first time Stroke and Turn and first time Starter-Referee certification. The video training affords the opportunity to better visualize stroke evaluation. Each pool has been provided their own Officiating Swimming DVD and expected to provide suitable opportunities to permit officials the ability to view the tape. Without this training, officials will not be fully certified to officiate a meet. Although not required for recertification, Deck and Video training are recommended for recertification of Stroke and Turn as well as for Starter-Referee Judges.

Note: For Starter-Referee Certification and Recertification you must take the Stroke and Turn Recertification test AND the Starter-Referee test in order to be full certified.

Use the 2010 Rules of Competition (you can also view the 2010 Rules with the changes from 2009 annotated) as open book reference material for the tests.

To access the USA Swimming Rules online, please visit their website at www.usa-swimming.org. Choose the Applications and Forms link on the left and the 2010 Rules will be about 3/4 of the way down the page in the "Manuals" section. (Or try this link for 2010 Rules) or access the document here.
