Missed races means loss of Club points!

The carnival will run from 3pm to 7.30pm, with events run in the following order, by gender and age group:

• Freestyle (50m, 30m, 20m)
• Butterfly (50m, 30m, 20m)
• Backstroke (50m, 30m, 20m)
• Breaststroke (50m, 30m, 20m)
• 4x50m relays (50m, 30m, 20m)
• 10x50m relay (50m, 30m, 20m)

Everyone who enters and swims in a race will win points for the Club. The higher you finish in your event, the more points you will earn!

However, if you enter a race but DO NOT SWIM, you will LOSE points for the Club!! So it’s important that you are available to swim every race that you enter. In the past, we have lost the carnival because we’ve had so many empty Drummoyne lanes, which is very disappointing for the other Club swimmers who have participated.

If you plan to leave the carnival early (before 7.30pm) or expect to arrive late (after 3pm) then please DO NOT ENTER events that you are likely to miss. For example, if you don’t expect to arrive until 4pm, then please don’t enter the Freestyle or Butterfly events as you will likely miss your races and lose points for the Club.
