There is a potential course coming up at Spring Break that would allow our older swimmers (15 years or older) to get their AWSI (Assistant Water Safety Instructor) and WSI (Water Safety Instructor) qualifications. Once you have these, you can work at any of the Vancouver pools teaching. You also have an important qualification toward a life-guarding certificate.
Zack at the Lord Byng pool is trying to pull together enough students to run these courses just before and over Spring Break. Call Zack at Lord Byng (604 222 6090) for more information if you are interested.

There has been many questions regarding the 2 hour rule and participation in school swim teams. To help explain this Stephanie Rabbers, President of the Saanich Peninsula Piranhas typed up this guideline, which is easy to understand so everyonne knows what the rules are. We thought we had to share it with you because it is such a great resource for everyone.
