Schools that provide a staff member to officiate will be paid the cost of one (1) TRS Day upon receipt of an invoice to the School Sport Office. While there is electronic timing at this venue, to operate most effectively, it is preferable to have 3 timekeepers per lane. To try to provide for this, Districts are asked to approach parents about whether they would be willing to timekeep during the Trials and

advise this office when Teacher Official names are sent. Parents will be asked to assist on the day to ensure there are 3 timekeepers per lane if necessary. C. Age Champion trophies will be awarded based on performances in 10 years, 11years & 12 years events only.

Nominations are to be emailed to Leigh Halvorsen at the Regional School Sport Office. Email: leigh.halvorsen@dete.qld.gov.au Nominations must be done on the Meet Manager Program. Should a District Swimming Convenor not have access to the Meet Manager program they should contact Leigh Halvorsen at the Sunshine Coast School Sport Office as soon as possible. The 2014 Program of events will be emailed to each Convenor for use with the Meet Manager program. If Districts have difficulties with their nominations they should call Leigh Halvorsen at the School Sport Office (5459 7392) for assistance. ALL NOMINATIONS MUST HAVE AN ENTRY TIME LISTED. ALL SWIMMERS MUST BE NOMINATED WITH THE SCHOOL CODE PROVIDED IN THE MEET MANAGER EVENTS PROGRAM. NB : Each District is able to nominate three (3) swimmers per event except that for those events which have a Regional Qualifying time, a maximum of three swimmers who meet the Regional Qualifying time only should be nominated. State qualifying times will be applied for the selection of the Regional Team. Districts may nominate a fourth (4 th ) swimmer in any 50m event as long as all swimmers equal or better the State Extra Swimmer Qualifying time. If a District wishes to nominate an additional competitor in an event, this must be done in consultation with the Regional School Sport Officer and will only be possible if there is a lane available in that event. Generally, an additional competitor would only be considered under exceptional circumstances and it is expected the District would make the determination on the swimmers nominated, e.g. if a swimmer is unable to compete at the District Trial but still wants to be considered for selection in the District Team, the District Convenor should make the determination whether to include that swimmer in the three (3) nominations rather than nominate that swimmer as an additional competitor. Additional Competitor nominations cannot be accepted after 24 th February under any circumstances. No nominations or substitutions will be accepted at the Regional Trials. SEATING Swimmers should assemble in the stands in their District Teams under the supervision of the District team Mangers and remain there unless competing. SHADE This is an indoor venue.
