 The purpose of the Swimming and Diving Handbook is to foster better understanding for one of the fastest growing varsity activities in the Gwinnett County Public Schools. The great number of participants plus the use of non‑Gwinnett County Public School facilities creates situations which are unique to the sport of swimming.

Approximately eight hundred swimmers take part in the varsity program. The logistics of this program during the time of year when the weather is a factor requires a great deal of understanding, dedication, sacrifice, and preparation on the part of many people--swimmers, officials, coaches, and parents.

The handbook is prepared at the start of each swimming season. It is a collection of many materials to create an atmosphere of understanding and success for swimmers, officials, parents, and coaches.

If you have suggestions or items which could be included in future handbooks, please submit the information to email the Coordinator of Gwinnett County Swim and Diving Booster Club. Use the link on the Contacts page.

Coaches are strongly encouraged to reproduce copies of rule clarifications in this book and give them to team parent officials. This handbook will be considered an official source of information and standards for Gwinnett County Public School competitions.
