Guidelines for Trainers at Swimming Phase of Tetrathlon / Minimus

Trainers will also receive a swimming heats list on which the competitor’s heat number and swimming lane will be listed. Trainers should make sure their competitors are ready and lined up when the steward calls them.

The competitor will be handed their own heat slip when they are called to swim which should have their name on it. Trainers should be sure each competitor checks that they have the correct slip and notify the steward if they do not. The competitor will hand their slip to the lane judge for the lane they are swimming in. Again, the competitor should be sure to hand the slip to the correct lane judge.

LANE WALKERS WILL INFORM COMPETITOR DISTANCE SWAM – ANY QUERIES ONCE POSTED ON WEBSITE TO BE SUBMITTED BY EMAIL WITHIN 30MINS.

When the competitor is finished swimming, they should leave the pool area immediately so as to keep the number of people on deck to a minimum.

Trainers should review the Tetrathlon Rule Book and be aware of the full list of rules regarding the swimming phase before each competition.

No one should approach the lane judges or starters at any time. Trainers should instruct both competitors and parents of this. The query will be dealt with as soon as possible and if the trainer is still not happy he/she must lodge an appeal to the appeals committee.
