Volunteers
A club like Maxwell would not be able to run without the help of volunteers. If you are able to help out with volunteering please let Ian Brewer know ASAP. Help is needed on the day of galas for everything from Car Park attendant, Front Reception Desk, Warm Up Marshalls, Card Room help and Marshalling Area. In return we will provide you will free entry to the meet and with lunch if you are helping all day. No experience is necessary as full training will be given. We also ensure there is enough help so you do not miss your child swimming.
Long Term - Maxwell need to find more officials. These are the people in the white outfits doing Timekeeping and Judging. If you are interested in learning one of these roles please contact Anne Minihan for more information.

Swimwear Rules
The FINA rules around swim costumes will change in 2010. The main changes are:

a) The swimwear (swimsuit, cap and goggles) of all competitors shall be in good moral taste and suitable for the individual sports disciplines and not to carry any symbol which may be considered offensive.
b) All swimsuits shall be non transparent.
c) The referee of a competition has the authority to exclude any competitor whose swimsuit or body symbols do not comply with this Rule.
d) In swimming competitions the competitor must wear only one swimsuit in one or two pieces. No additional items, like arm bands or leg bands shall be regarded as parts of a swimsuit.
e) From January 1, 2010 swimwear for men shall not extend above the navel nor below the knee, and for women, shall not cover the neck, extend past the shoulder, nor shall extend below knee. All swimsuits shall be made from textile materials.

Full details can be found on the ASA Website and a list of acceptable swimwear is available from the Fina Website
