Welcome to the 25 March edition of the Swimming NSW e-newsletter

We farewell summer and the long course season this weekend at 2022 NSW Junior State Age Championships.

We've saved the best for last and we're going out with a bang in Sydney with speedy racing, Australian Dolphins appearances, a supercharged JX clinic, and live stream coverage all packed into the Junior State program.

For all the TikTok enthusiasts attending - we've got heaps planned to engage our junior legends. If your club or members would like to be featured on our socials, please let a staff member know at the pool on Saturday morning.

As a reminder, we are collecting equipment donations at Junior State Age for clubs who have lost everything in the recent flood disaster.

Flood affected clubs in the metro area are invited to pick up donations from SOPAC during Junior State Age. For clubs based regionally who cannot get to SOPAC, we will work with representatives to organise the distribution of donations.

If your club has been affected and you haven't been in contact with Swimming NSW yet, please reach out and let us know what you need.

Swimming NSW and Wylas Timing have partnered to offer Swimming NSW clubs free rental of an all-inclusive Wylas wireless timing pack.

Trial bookings are open for clubs in the Sydney metro area right now.
Clubs in regional areas who did not have the opportunity to trial the system in 2022 are invited to book a trial for January and February, 2023.

Clubs will be responsible for delivery costs when a courier is required to transport the timing system around the state. However, if your club chooses to invest in a Wylas timing system, Wylas will deduct incurred courier costs from your purchase price.
