Officiating at events

Each time Hitchin Swimming Club enters an Open Meet, the club is required to supply a number of officials.  Providing officials is a condition of entry so, without officials our swimmers would not be able to compete.

The following qualified officials regularly give up their time to officiate at events:

Colin Brackston
Louise Hughes
Kevin Cooper
Deborah Pollard
Sarah Larkham
Leo So
Karen Cropley

The Club currently has 2 Judge Level 1 in training who are being mentored to become a fully qualified Judge level 1:

Lisa Hiemstra
Helen Robinson

We also have some excellent time keepers who are able to officiate at level 4 meets including HSC Club Champs:

Abigail Cross
Karla Cross
Annelise Finlayson
Ben Finlayson
Martin Holland
Donna Marchant
Jon Morley
Sarah Mathias
Kirsty Leggat
Georgina Quayle
