'Secondary Card System'
6. Swimmers should collect their cards from the racks by the small pool and report to the marshalling point 6 heats prior to their race. If a swimmer is not ready when called for a race he/she will unfortunately, be deleted from that event.
7. 'OVER THE TOP' starts will be used for all events except backstroke events and finals. This means that at the end of a race the swimmer will stay in the water until after the start of the next race, and then leave the water quickly BY THE SIDE of the pool.

SWIMMERS NOTE: YOUR FIRST START IS YOUR ONLY START!!!!!!!!
9 Reserve swimmers should post their cards in the usual way. From past experience reserves do usually get a swim. However, if we cannot accommodate a reserve, then, provided the card has been posted by the swimmer in the entry box, a refund will be given.
10. If finalists do not intend to compete in the final they are requested to inform the recorders as soon as possible. Reserves are requested to report for the final of their event.
11. Presentation ceremonies will be held at the end of the Saturday morning and afternoon sessions, the beginning of the 11.15am Sunday morning session for the distance events and at the end of the Sunday morning session. Presentations for events held during Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon will be made during the swimming session in order that competitors with a long distance to travel can leave when they wish. - We hope this will not detract from the events but past experience has shown that during these sessions the will to stay for presentations is somewhat lacking!! First second and third in each event are requested to report to the marshalling area 4 finals before the end of the session. Please check the result sheet and listen to the announcements. If swimmers are not available at the time of their presentation, the presentation will go ahead without them so as not to delay proceedings.
