Instructions on how to enter relay teams- Download Here

Where a club enters three (3) or more relay teams, all teams must meet the qualifying time to be eligible.

Should you wish to make any changes to your relay team, an updated relay form must be submitted to the Chief Recorder on race day prior to the start of the session in which the event will be contested. If you are adding new swimmers, you must include their DOB. Relay forms are not required if you are not making any changes.

In Club relays a maximum of one (1) swimmer from a younger age group may participate. Relay entries utilising a younger swimmer will not be able to be processed via swim central and instead must be emailed to events@nsw.swimming.org.au 

A swimmer may only appear in one (1) relay team list for that event.

Multi-Class Entries must be submitted via Swim Central

Multi Class events are championship events and qualifying times apply. Whilst Swim Central will allow MC swimmers to enter all MC events – please ensure you read the MC Qualifying Times found on the last two pages of the Program & QTs and only enter events for which you qualify. Entry times will be checked and any swimmers who do not have the correct entry time for their entries, will be withdrawn and no refund will be given.

Swimming Australia has advised that due to the entry closing date for National SC Championships being before NSW Snr State SC Championships, that they will be accepting late entries for athletes that achieve entry times at this meet, under the following conditions:

• If an athlete makes a NEW qualifying time, they can process a special consideration entry, without being charged a late fee. 
• This submission must be submitted no later than 11:59pm Sunday 3rd September. Requests after this time will be declined. 
• The Swimmer must enter all other available entries via Swim Central before the closing date. Swimmers are not permitted to wait to submit all their entries via the late form after the closing date, as their other entries will be rejected. 
• If the swimmer already has a valid qualifying time for a particular event, they must use this time and enter via Swim Central before the closing date. Swimming Australia will not accept "updated" or "faster" times achieved after the closing date, if a swimmer has already qualified.
• For the late entry link, please contact shannon.smith@swimming.org.au
