FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
At Saturday training, we aim to have a committee member at training sessions. Please come and ask us any questions you have. If we don’t have an answer, we will find out for you! We will also endeavour to introduce ourselves to you and check that things aren’t too overwhelming! If you can’t find a committee member, please feel free ask the coach when they are available.

Swimmers can be exempt from paying monthly training fees for the full month they do not train due to illness or injury with a valid Medical Certificate from a Doctor for the exempt period.

Safeguarding Children and Young People in Sports Induction Course
This course is for any person and any organisation that is bound by the Child Safeguarding policy and provides the foundation knowledge and education required to understand and implement the Child Safeguarding Policy. Any parent who officiates will need to have undertaken this online course to be able to nominate to officiate so that their child can swim at that event.

Uploading to Swim Central
Once you have received your WWCC and completed the Safeguarding course, you’ll need to upload both documents to Swim Central as soon as they are available.
It is important that your child is able to swim freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke before they join Clovercrest Swimming Club. A certain proficiency is required in freestyle and backstroke, and breaststroke is a tricky stroke to teach without a learn to swim instructor. If your child hasn't reached these milestones yet, we recommend contacting Clovercrest State Swim. Most of our swimmers started their swimming journey at State Swim, and are very grateful for the skills that have made them the swimmers they are today.
Once your child has mastered the basics, we'd love to have them join us if they are still interested in competitive swimming!
