CCAQ is responsible for timing at
ALL meets we attend. Please remember that all
parents are required to time a one hour shift per session when your
child swims. Timing chairs are calculated on swimmers and not
families. Timing slots are on a first come, first serve basis.
Please be courteous to the other parents by relieving them from
their obligation on time. Direct denial of a coach’s
appointment could cause consequences for the entire team and
operation of the meet. Your cooperation is greatly
appreciated.
Example: If you have two swimmers and one races
in the morning session and one races in the afternoon session, you
are responsible to time one hour in the morning and one hour in the
afternoon. If you have two swimmers that race in the same
session, you are responsible to time two one hour shifts during
that session.
Remember these tips:
~
Sign up for your shift as you arrive to the meet.
~
Pay attention to time so you are not late for your
shift.
~
Know how to operate your stopwatch prior to the event. ~
Practice "start-stop-clear" several times before the event
begins.
~
Pay attention at all times. It is easy to chat with your
fellow timers and forget your stopwatch.
