Swimming Supervisors Required

Our Special Olympics training programme has started and we need supervisors to help.

• Training - Fridays from 6 – 7pm at the Onekawa pools.
• Training is weekly (except for the holidays or a public holiday or if the club has a swimming tournament).
• Technical swimming experience is not necessary.
• You do need to be comfortable working with athletes with an intellectual disability.
• Special Olympics offer training forums to anyone that wants to further their knowledge.
• At training you need to be able to keep the swimmers moving for the hour to help build up their fitness.
• You will need to encourage the swimmers to keep going.

Every 2 years there is a local swimming event in Waipukurau.

There are approximately 6 out of town events in the lower North Island or maybe Taupo. These are 1-2 day events.
