COVID Safe Event
We are constantly monitoring the situation following NSW Health legislation and planning to deliver a COVID safe event in February 2021. We have submitted our COVID Safe plan for the event and continue to work with Randwick City Council, NSW Maritime, NSW Swimming and NSW Health regarding the necessary planning and procedures we need to have in place by February 2021. We continue to respond to the updated guidelines for outdoor sporting events as provided by NSW Health and the NSW Office of Sport.
What to expect
Competitors will be updated via email and this wesbite as we progress towards the race day. Access and movements around the park and beach, both before and after the race will reflect the guidelines regarding social distancing, hygiene and cleaning, contact tracing and keeping participants and volunteers safe.
Competitors will also be advised in the week preceding the swim exactly when you will be expected on site to collect your timing band and swim cap immediately prior to the rolling swim start we will be using in 2021.
There will be no post swim presentation and swimmers will be asked to leave the area immediately after completing their swim.
Physical Distancing
Please keep your social distance of 1.5m apart from other competitors and volunteers throughout the day. We ask that you enter and exit through the designated areas and leave the park promptly after your swim - to remain COVID Safe compliant in 2021.
We ask that only swimmers and volunteers attend in 2021, no spectators. This requirement is to ensure physical distancing to remain COVID Safe.
Hygiene and cleaning
There will be santister stations available throughout the park. Cleaning crew will monitor high use areas. Please wash you hands before and after contact with surfaces around the event.
Contact tracing
All events staff and volunteers will be required to self-checkin upon arrival, all competitors will need to be pre-registered for the swim. There will also be Service NSW QR codes around the venue to self-checkin.
Good luck with your training and stay safe and healthy!
