Open water event

Can an Open Water Event Director also be the Safety Director?

Thanks

  • Hi Ann

    The two positions need to be different individuals according to the rules. The names and contact information for the two roles are entered into the Safety Plan and Sanction Request Form for the Open Water Event.

    USMS Rulebook - Part 3 Article 303.3.1

    If dual sanctioning the event, USA Swimming Rulebook - Part Seven Article 701.7 and 701.8

    Thank you for your question.
