Inclusive Swimmers competing at ACC Divisional Swim Carnivals

Swim Classification for Inclusive Students- ACC inclusive students are now able to compete in the mainstream ACC Divisional Swim Carnivals held at HBF Stadium as a member of their interschool swim team. However, to compete, these students must hold a multi-class swim classification appropriate to their disability.

Classified swimmers will have their times sanctioned by Swim WA. This positive initative was introduced in 2019.This will apply to those swimmers who have nominated for their events by the correct date on the ACC Website.

 Obtaining a Provisional Classification:

Each disability (Vision, Physical, Intellectual…) requires a different Provisional classification process. These forms are to be completed by both parents and/or treating doctors and physiotherapists.

Some students may already have a classification or have the information required to complete one recently done. This will make the process easy and efficient.

Classified Swimmers will compete in an outside lane available within their age group (excluding Div. I). Personal swim results will be recorded and collated. However, no points will be allocated to the swimmer’s school team results.
