Dorrigo Swim Club promotes participation and individual swimming improvement by allocation of points for improvement in swimming times and attendance. Pointscore trophies are awarded at Presentation Night. Club Nights are held every Wednesday night 5.30pm for a  5.45pm start. Be sure to arrive at least by 5.30pm. If your running late please text the recorders with your entries. A BBQ operates every Wednesday night and prices are very reasonable for families. All swimmers, at all levels are welcome and encouraged to participate. Dorrigo Swim Club has swimmers of all ages, although most swimmers are under 18 years with our highest registrations being in the 8-14yrs age group. Anyone wishing to "test and try" before you join, can attend 2 club nights before registration is required. Parent/Carer helpers are always welcome and encouraged to assist with various activities e.g the BBQ, timekeeping, lane ropes, pool blankets and possibly a raffle.

Swimmers who would like to compete at a level higher than club nights, can compete at the  District Carnivals . Some of these carnivals are development meets with a relaxed atmosphere which are a good introduction to competitive swimming. The District Swimming Association (Swimming North Coast) will be holding its summer championships in 2014 (now known as a qualifying meet) over a 2 day meet in Coffs Harbour on 6th & 7th December, and these championships are a great way for swimming club members to get involved with the team spirit of getting points for the Dorrigo Swim Club.

If a swimmer wants to compete at a higher level e.g Country, State or Australian Championships, they need to achieve a qualifying time. Dorrigo had one swimmer represent at NSW Country Championships.This can be achieved by attending a qualifying meet or a development meet that has qualifying times. If you need more information please ask your coach.

Assistance: If there is anything you need help with, please ask a committee member or your coach to point you in the right direction. Once again you can email your questions to us on the "contact us" page of this website.  We are here to help you!!

POINTSCORE at Club Nights

·         PB's from the previous season will be carried over.


·           ONE point - For participation in the event


·         TWO points - For swimming within 0.01sec a previous best time.

 

·         THREE points - For any improvement greater than 0.01sec of a personal best time or for a first swim at each distance.

 

These points are added together at the end of the season so that a point score trophy can be awarded in each age division and an overall highest point score trophy will be awarded to the competitor with the highest total.
