  9. General Guidelines If possible, if you are a certified official, bring your “Blue and Whites” to every meet you attend. In the event that a club cannot supply the minimum number of officials to staff a meet, the club that does not have enough officials, loses their right to protest a meet. (Other penalties being considered) Unless extenuating circumstances, never give up the ref position to the visiting team. All calls should be sent through the referee (Radios are a GREAT TOOL) Table should not make assumptions as to how to resolve a placement discrepancy. If Finish Judges agree on order of finish, then this is the order of finish for scoring purposes, REGARDLESS of times. Communication is Key. If your club is a non standard configuration, let the other team know ahead of time so they can be prepared to assist. Officials should have their cards with them on deck and should be presented when asked by the referee. Challenges can be made through your league coordinator.

  10. General Guidelines (Cont) • Anyone challenging a call should go through the Ref. • Depth Guidelines: • If swimmers are to dive off blocks, the water depth must be greater than five (5) feet at the starting end of the course • In pools where the water depth at the start end of the pool is less than 5 feet, however 4 feet or more for all lanes to be used, the swimmers may dive from the deck of the pool, but may not use a starting block. • In pools where the water depth at the start end of the pool is less than 4 feet for any lanes of the pool to be used, the swimmers must start in the water. • Please note that the NJSDC will NO LONGER accept waivers from municipalities that may grandfather diving starts in water depths of less than 5 feet.   In cases where such a waiver exists, it is the position of the NJSDC that it is in the best interest of swimmer safety to adhere to stricter policies than the waiver may allow • We are not adjusting championship or conference times for in the water starts..
