FINA Rules update 2023 to 2025

World Aquatics Rules UPDATE 2023 – 2025.

The new rules come into force in England on March 10th 2023.

All are urged to sign up to the first session you can attend so all our Southwest Officials are up to date with the new rules as quickly as possible by/after the implementation date.

Go to Swim-Meet https://www.swim-meet.com/OfficialsSignup/SwimEnglandSouthWest/ 

and choose FINA RULES update 2023-25 and select your preferred date.

Once signed up you will be sent the appropriate ZOOM sign in link.  Please try and attend a session as soon as you can.

PLEASE NOTE even if you have renewed your licence in 2022 or the first weeks of 2023 you should still attend the compulsory FINA RULES 2023-25 update as soon as possible.   All licensed officials have a duty to be up to date. All trainee officials should be aware of the current swimming rules.  Your attendance at the official CPD delivered by ZOOM will be registered with Swim England and your County Coordinators will have registers of all those who have attended to refer to when Licence Applications are completed.

As soon as is practical, all licensed officials and all J1 trainees progressing through their practical phase will receive an up to date set of World Aquatics rules. Remember this booklet does not highlight the changes.   Attendance at the Update CPD is where the changes and standard rules interpretation “aide memoire” are explained.
