Swimsuit Rules:
MATERIAL
The material of swimwear will definitively be constituted only by textile

weaving, knitting, and/or braiding.

WOMEN: swimwear shall not cover the neck, extend past the shoulder, nor extend
below knee. No zippers or other fastening system is allowed.
Swim Ontario policy:
“Meet Management acknowledged the SO policy with banning the future use of split times as
official times and requires that any coach wishing to rely on a time achieved by the swimmer for
an interval shorter than the total distance of the event shall so advise the Referee prior to the
commencement of the session (or event) in question. In such a case, Meet Management and
the Referee will undertake all appropriate steps as prescribed by their training to assure the
quality and integrity of interval times. Any time collected according to this request will
subsequently be recorded in a separate event of the appropriate distance and stroke created for
such a purpose."
Swimming/Natation Canada Rule SW 10.1 Item 5
"where, due to facility or time limitations, swimming separated by gender would not permit all
swims to be completed while offering reasonable opportunities to swim for all participants, and
in particular on an equitable basis for swimmers of each gender.
In spite of this rule, any swimmer who achieves a record time at any level (club, regional,
provincial, national, etc, whether age-group or open) will not be recognized for that record
unless the coach has advised the referee prior to the start of the session in which the is to be
contested that there is a possibility of the record being broken, and the referee ensures that the
swimmer competes with competitors of the same gender for his/her heat.
In the event that mixed gender swims are permitted pursuant to this policy, the results still be
posted separately by the gender of swimmers.
