10.01.2022 Team Kiama, Due to the lack of weekend carnivals this term because of COVID-19 restrictions, Kiama Swim Club have been running our Friday Nights as Approved Qualifying Nights as well as regular Pointscore Nights. This means swimmers times from Friday Nights are official and can be used for entering carnivals with qualifying times. We've even run additional events each week to give swimmers every opportunity to achieve times required for up-coming big meets this Summer. Swimme...rs times are available for viewing from within Swim Central (swimcentral.swimming.org.au) or from Results Central (results.swimming.org.au). Results are generally uploaded within 7 days. A big thank you to our Race Secretary Sue and a dedicated team of officials, including our Starter Martin and Referees John & Archie, who have been putting in extra effort each week for this to happen. #teamkiama #swimming
