Dear Members of the Swimming Community in NB,

In conformity with the decision of Swimming Canada to cancel all national events through at least 20th April 2020 (including the Olympic and Paralympic Swimming Trials and the 2020 Eastern Championships) and its instructions to provincial sections to cancel all sanctioned competitions from 18th March 2020 to 20th April 2020, we are writing to inform you that Swimming NB has decided to:

  • Cancel the Time Trials that were planned to take place instead of the NB Spring Championships.
  • Cancel the Premiers meets scheduled for 28th March 2020 in Campbellton and for 29th March 2020 in Fredericton and Sackville.
  • Cancel the 10 and under Festival foreseen for 18th April 2020 in Fredericton.

As far as club activities are concerned, SNB clubs and memberships need to act in line with their local health authorities, municipalities and facilities and the recommendations and guidelines laid out by them, as well as to use their best judgment for the safety of their families and team members.

Thank you for your patience and your collaboration over the last period. We will report further developments as and when they occur.
