After an absence of nearly 18 months, and following the successful running of the Festival of Swimming events at WNPS and CIP in August 2021, Swim Wales are delighted to announce the return of competition and event licensing for our sports in Wales.
Our events team have been working extremely hard on GB Events and Festival of Swimming ‘proof of concept’ events domestically in order to create the necessary support and guidance for a return across our regions and clubs. Licensing applications will be accepted from the 13th of September and a specially designed resources toolkit will be published on the Swim Wales website on the 9th of September providing supporting documents for the safe and manageable return of competition. This will include updated application forms which should be used when applying for licensing.
Clubs will be able to host level 1, 2 or 3 galas (once licensing has been approved by Swim Wales), however clubs are encouraged to review their events in line with the published guidance, taking into account potential reduced capacity and additional mitigations (e.g. use of social distancing). The Swim Wales team are here to support, should you wish to discuss your events please contact: swimwales-events@swimming.org
