Swimming Carnival 2022
Unfortunately, due to Covid, there will be no school swimming carnival and Tuggeranong Region carnival this year. Below is a message from ACT School Sport regarding gaining entry to the ACT carnival later in the year:
This year’s swimming will be run a little differently due to Covid-19. This year the format will look a lot different, in that there will be no Tuggeranong Region carnival.
Instead, there will be a State Team Selection Trial for 10-12 year olds as well as determining ACT Champion for all age groups including, 8 and 9 year olds. To nominate for this carnival and be eligible to travel away (hopefully) as part of the ACT squad, here are the options:
- Students that are a part of an ACT Swim Club, will be able to get a time there. Nomination times from club swimmers can be sent to the school.
- Tuggeranong Vikings Swim Club are kindly offering a School Clinic for stroke development and an invitation for students to attend their Club Night on afternoon/evening of Sunday 27 February at Lakeside Leisure Centre, to obtain a verifiable time. Times TBC, please contact Adele Gow adelegow@hotmail.com.au(TVSC Committee Member) for more information.
- Swimming ACT is offering an invitation for students to attend a time trial from 2pm Sunday 13 March at the AIS. Entry request would need to be supported by a statement of capability from their swim coach or swim instructor giving an approximate time for each event. Students wishing to take up this opportunity must contact Lorraine Wuth school.liaison@swimmingact.com.au prior to the 4 March deadline. There will be limited spaces available and not guaranteed.
- Contact an ACT Swim Club and request to join one of their Club Night’s or other especially arranged opportunity to obtain a verifiable time from a Club Official in their specific event.
