Training Exercises are done in conjunction with the Training Notes.
Download the Timekeeper Training Notes and the Timekeeper Training Exercises.
After doing these, you are now ready to do the Timekeeper Learner Guide. This will give you all the necessary information and skills to be assessed successfully.
- PRACTICE WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED
Request an Assessment through the ATSC Convenor. The assessment for Timekeeper can be done at Club. If competent, the Assessor will help you complete the Cover Sheet and this should be forwarded this to the ATSC Convenor.
If your Club has different criteria or protocols, when being assessed it is important that you follow the criteria in the Module.
Assessment
Assessment involves being deemed competent as an Official at a MetSEA Meet. Timekeepers can be assessed at Club. Other officials (except Referee) must be assessed at a MetSEA Meet.
Starters require 2 assessments at a MetSEA Meet.
Assessment for Referee
Referee Courses are conducted by Swimming NSW. Following completion, a written examination is required before qualification as Level 1 (Club & Area Referee).
For progression to Level 2 (State Referee), another written examination is required.
