REGIONALS

It's finally here! We're super excited to cheer on all of our amazing swimmers at the Regional Championships this weekend!

Regionals will be held on Friday, Aug 2 - Sunday, Aug 4 at the Nanaimo Aquatic Centre - 741 Third Street

Important Notes

Traffic is expected to be heavy due to long weekend traffic so please plan to give yourself lots of time to get to Nanaimo!

The weather forecast is pretty good other than the possibility of a little rain on Friday.









Meet Information

You can see the meet package HERE.

Heat Sheets - FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY

Relays - HERE. Please note: the coaches have worked very hard to put together relays that will get the most kids possible qualified for Provincials. We will not tolerate swimmers or parents complaining about the make up of the relays. 

This is a heats and finals meet (including consolation finals except in relays).  

The top three swimmers of each event will qualify for Provincials. In addition, any swimmer who achieves a PQT (Provincial Qualifying Time - see HERE) in the FINALS of an event will qualify for Provincials even if they are not a top three finisher.

The top TWO relays of each event will qualify to attend Provincials. 

At the end of the meet on Sunday the coaches from all the clubs have a scratch meeting. At this time any swimmers who have qualified but are not planning to attend Provincials will be scratched and the next placed swimmer will take their place.
