Swimming officials play a critical role at any swimming competition as without their assistance competitions could not take place. The role of an official encompasses the entire competition from start to finish, yet the factors of work required, rest availability and perceived fatigue when officiating within the sport is unclear. The latter is particularly pertinent as nearly all swimming officiating roles in Australia are held by volunteers, people who dedicate themselves to sport without monetary reward. Despite their importance to swimming organisations, to the author’s knowledge, no research has been conducted to investigate who these volunteers are and what is expected of them at swimming competitions. Of key interest are the demographic characteristics of these volunteers including their ages, gender and officiating experiences. Similarly, what are the physical workload demands expected of the various officiating roles that are required during a swimming competition. The purpose of this research was to quantify the competition demands and workload of the swimming official’s role. These data were stratified by officiating type for the common short course and a long course competition and this provided insight about additional management strategies for competition staff and volunteers within the sport. |
