NEW OFFICIALS: If you’re new to officiating or would like to become an official and haven’t attended any clinics, your first step is to complete the checklist below:
-
Create an account and register as a non-athlete member (Official) through USA Swimming - click here.
-
Complete Stroke and Turn Certification Course
-
Complete Foundations of Officiating
Once you’ve completed the online course, you’re welcome to attend our LSC clinic. You will want to register for the "Becoming an Official – An Overview" as your first in-person session. There is no need to sign up for an afternoon session, unless one interests you.
EXPERIENCED OFFICIALS: If you’ve already taken the online course or have attended a previous clinic, you are welcome to take any course offered at the clinic.
Pacific Swimming Clinic information is below. Please reach out with any questions!
Thank you for your support! GO NEPTUNES!
Registration is Now Open for the LSC-Wide Officials Clinic, Saturday, October 4, 2025
Join Us!
It's time for the annual LSC-Wide Pacific Swimming Officials' Clinic on Saturday, October 4, 2025, at the Pleasant Hill Senior Center, 233 Gregory Lane, Pleasant Hill, CA. Check-in will begin at 8:00 AM. The clinic will begin promptly at 9:00 AM and conclude approximately at 4:30 PM.
All Pacific Swimming Officials, especially recent Stroke and Turn officials or current Stroke and Turn apprentice officials are welcome to attend.
FOR EXPERIENCED OFFICIALS:
Please register for only TWO sessions you plan to attend – one in the morning and one in the afternoon - that means only two classes per person. We do not offer an LSC Beginning Stroke and Turn Clinic at this event, so it is recommended you take those courses online prior to the clinic if you have not already. All classes are first come, first serve. Parking at the Senior Center is free but it will fill up - we encourage carpooling or getting here early for the best parking.
