JOIN A SWIM CLUB
Join a local Sask swim club today and perhaps this will be the start of your Olympic dream!
The Olympics are showcasing the best swimmers in the world including Sask swimmer Blake Tierney. Swimming has great benefits:
Swimming is a life skill and a lifelong activity. People continue to swim into their 80's, 90's and even 100's!
Swimming is a non-weightbearing sport
Coaches in all clubs must take NCCP Coaching education courses. Head Coaches of year-round clubs are professionals, this is their livelihood.
Learn time management skills, and being a great teammate.
Swim Clubs provide various programs from Competitive to Fitness to Learn to Swim, Para, Pre-competitive, and Masters (18 and over).
As you continue to cheer on our Canadian winners in Paris, consider joining a local swim club. Click here to find a club in your area.
Complete the required pre-course work then register for an online coaching course. Courses will fill quickly, so do not wait to sign up! For more information on coach requirements, visit the Coaches tab.
For a coach to maintain their NCCP education trained or certified status, they are required to obtain Professional Development (PD) points within a 5 year period. As we approach the new swim season, friendly reminder to coaches to check your PD points and the end date of your maintenance cycle in The Locker. There are several ways to collect PD points, such as completing eLearning modules through Swimming Canada or the Coaches Association of Canada and self-declaring years of active coaching. For more information on coaching requirements and PD points, click the image above.
PARA SWIMMING OFFICIALS CLINIC
Swim Saskatchewan and Swimming Canada will be hosting a Domestic Para Swimming Clinic in Saskatoon on Saturday, November 23. This course is free of charge and officials can sign up at edu.swimming.ca. Registration is open!
To take the clinic, officials must complete the Intro to Swimming Officiating (Timekeeper) and be fully certified in Judge of Stroke or Inspector of Turns. To be certified, you must have taken the clinic and had 2 deck evaluations in the position. Being certified in both positions is preferred, but not mandatory. Additionally officials are highly encouraged to also complete the Para Swimming e-module. Officials must also be committed to working the Saskatoon Lasers Invitational Swim Meet the following day (Sunday, November 24) to apply what they learned during the course.
