2017!
COME JOIN US!
The annual Blackfly Meet is a chance for novice to experienced swimmers to enjoy some
friendly competition before the end of the annual swim season. Swimmers have an
opportunity to measure their annual progress in a comfortable, fun and energizing
atmosphere. The swim meet is designed for all ages and the Deep River Candu Swimmers
can challenge a range of athletes from beginners to national level.
MORE THAN JUST A MEET!
This two day meet provides not only an opportunity for performance but also a chance for
some final team building for the 2016-17 swim season. We are hoping to make this meet
the most memorable yet! End the year on the right wave, giving a reason why a swimmer
must return or ignite their competitive nature for the next swim season.

TIME SPLITS
MEET RESULTS
SAFETY &
LIABILITY
RECORDING OF
EVENT
MIXED GENDER
The procedure for obtaining an 'Official Split' now requires that coaches make the
request to the session referee or meet management on the “Official Split Request”
form prior to the race. The split for the lead-off leg in relays will still be regarded
as an official split and therefore no request by coaches is needed for relays.
However, in the new 'mixed gender' relays, lead-off times/splits are not
considered “official splits' as per international practice.
Meet management requires that any coach wishing to rely on a time achieved by
the swimmer for an interval shorter than the total distance of the event shall so
advise the Referee prior to the commencement of the session (or event) in
question.
Official Results will be posted within 48 hours of completion of the meet to
www.swimming.ca
Only participating swimmers, officials, certified registered coaches, and authorized
people are allowed on deck.
Only individuals that have made application and received authorization to record
the event, in any manner, in any medium or context now known or hereafter
developed, shall be granted access and permission to do so. Please contact Meet
Management for application and authorization.
The host seeks an exemption from the requirement to swim events in gender
separated events due to facility or time limitations, swimming separated by
gender would not permit all swims to be completed while offering reasonable
opportunities to swim for all participants, and in particular on an equitable basis
for swimmers of each gender.
