Hello TSA Reps!
We offer 3 methods in which your clubs may obtain TSA Stroke and Turn certification. Each club must have at least one certified official.  However, I would recommend that you have more than 2 to ensure you have coverage at your swim meets.

1) The preferred method for TSA Stroke and Turn certification is attendance at an in person Stroke and Turn clinic. 
MEGA CLINICS (starter, stroke & turn, coaches all in one day):
- Saturday, May 13th at the Triangle Aquatics Center (TAC) 275 Convention Drive, Cary, NC 27511
- Saturday May 20th at the North Hills Country Club, 4824 Yadkin Drive Raleigh, NC, 27609
Schedule:
Starter's Clinic: 7:30 am
Stroke and Turn Clinic: 8:45 am *
Coaches Clinic- 11:00 am - until 12:30 pm MUST STAY FOR THE ENTIRE CLINIC, no exceptions, plan accordingly

STROKE & TURN CLINICS:
- Tuesday May, 23rd 7pm Planter's Walk Clubhouse - 901 Lynwood Road, Knightdale, 27545
- Tuesday, May 30th 7pm Scott's Mill Clubhouse - 201 Scotts Ridge Trail Apex, NC 27502 *
- Wednesday, May 31st 7pm Lochmere Highlands Clubhouse - 200 Loch Highlands Dr, Cary, NC 27518
 
Note: Stroke and Turn Clinics with an (*) will have the opportunity for stroke and turn judges to see
swimmers in the water to facilitate their training. Excellent opportunity for judges!!!
  
2) If your club has an USA Swimming or NCHSAA Swimming certified official, please send a copy of their current certification card to tsa.nc.vp@gmail.com to be added to the 2017 approved Stroke and Turn list. 

3) Finally, we offer an on-line Stroke and Turn certification for a cost of $24.99.   The on-line link is:  https://strokeandturn.com/shop/swimming-judging/stroke-turn-2017/  . Once you have selected the course, a dropdown will allow for the parent to choose TSA and their team.  Upon successful completion of the on-line course, I will be notified and will add that individual to the approved list for 2017
 
If you have any questions, please contact tsa.nc.vp@gmail.com
