Re: USA-S Pool Certification Update for FL Pools Requesting Meets
Now that the 2011 season is started and FL Club Charters are complete, it is time to also update our Florida Swimming pool measurement certifications. Contact the Florida Swimming office if you are hosting meets on the 2011 meet schedule to see if your pool certification/pool measurement form is current. If you have had any changes in your facilities pool, such as re-facing or any reconstruction, since your last submission of a pool certification, please read the attached material to re-certify your pool.
It is mandatory by USA Swimming that all sanctioned, approved or observed meets being run in Florida pools be certified. They must pass their requirements for measurement standard by a certified engineer to make sure athlete times are acceptable into the USA-S TIMES data base Host clubs will not receive sanction, approval and observation requests unless current Pool Certification Forms are on file with Florida Swimming and USA Swimming, If you have any questions or concerns about your facility, please contact the Florida Swimming office immediately.
