Education corner with Tanya Allan - DQs

Wed - 15/11/23

This video is about DQs themselves at our club and why we have them. I have to say, getting a DQ at club is WAY more supportive than getting one at a meet even though it can break a heart at the time. Think of a DQ the same way as a penalty at a soccer match – it keeps the game fair when an illegal mistake has been made.

I’m poolside every Friday at 5.30pm to help swimmers with their dives / turns / work on their strokes to make them faster. Most importantly, I’m there for kids who disqualified the previous week, to learn some mad awesome skills to avoid a future DQ.

Please get your swimmers to find me and ask for help when they need it!
