30nov2021 UPDATE:

The Cowichan Aquatic Centre is requiring proof of vaccination for:

- DST members ages 23yrs & older.  
- volunteers accessing the pool deck

--> DST members aged 22yrs & younger will be required to prove DST membership upon entry to the CAC.  Please show your Stingrays cap until further notice.  POV is not required for our 22yrs & under members.  

 


29nov2021 UPDATE:

  • PSYCH SHEET
    • collection of all swimmers & their entries per event
  • SESSION REPORT
    • unofficial timeline, approximate start times per event
  • HEAT SHEET
    • the order of the day.  All participants of a specific race ie "Event" will race their race before the competition moves on to the next Event.    
      • EVENT: the specific stroke & distance of the race
      • HEAT: collection of maximum 6 swimmers racing at the same time
      • LANE: the assigned lane per swimmer 

COVID screening & Spectators:

The Duncan Swim Team received an email from the Cowichan Aquatic Centre on 28nov2021:

"Effective December 1, the Cowichan Aquatic Centre will require all visitors aged 12 and up to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination (POV)."

As a result of this recent update, all DST participants ages 12yrs & up will have to provide proof of vaccination for this event.  Screening will be done at the entrance of the CAC.  If you are unable to provide proof, you will not be granted entrance to the facility.

In lieu of this very recent update with much associated uncertainty along with too little time to react appropriately, DST will be running this in-house time trial as a regular training session with NO SPECTATORS.  We are endeavoring to secure a live streaming option for all to view this exciting event.

 


26nov2021 UPDATE:

In keeping in line with the CAC's guidelines for Covid protocol, DST will be revising this event to allow for as many individuals on deck as possible.  

So.

Volunteers will be needed ONLY for:

  • electronics
  • covid screeners
  • tbd

Sr Swimmers will be our Timers for the event.

Families will have the option of having 1 x Support Person per family for this event.  Proof of vaccination will be required.  Details to follow.

VOLUNTEERING:  Questions?  Please contact our volunteer Officials Coordinator Lisa H.

PARTICIPANTS: Here is the step by step process for being included in this event:

  1. Parents click on the button (top right) to Declare your swimmer. 
    You must choose 'yes, I will attend this event' to be included in this event.  It is not necessary to decline but is always appreciated.
  2. Swimmers select events with their Coach.  This has been ongoing.
  3. Shortly after the Confirmation Deadline (27nov2021) all confirmed swimmers will receive an Entries & Fees Report via email (usually within 48hrs of the deadline).

05oct2021 INITIAL POST:

The first of our in house Time Trial Meets - this one is open to all levels of our Team:

  • FUNdamentals / SwimActive / D group swimmers are encouraged to participate
  • C group swimmers are encouraged to attend either as a swimmer or as a helper
  • B group / A group swimmers are encouraged to help the next generation; just as they'd received in years past

This is a FREE EVENT for all of our members and it is an UNSANCTIONED competition, meaning this will not affect your Swimmer's Swimming Canada / SwimBC Insurance category.  Questions?  Please contact your swimmer's regular coach firstname@duncanstingrays.com.

 


 

MEET PACKAGE - team's internal deadline is 28nov2021.  Your Swimmer will discuss with their Coach which events they will be swimming.  The family only obligation is to confirm / decline.
