2018 State Championships - Grading & Fixtures

Fixtures for all grades for the 2018 State Championships have been released and are available to download

Commences: Tuesday 17th July

The year we have a much earlier start to our competition due to WPV's bookings being set aside following a new contract arrangement between MSAC and with Swimming Australia to host the National Shortcourse Championships in October over the next 4 years

Fixture Details

As always, sorting out grading and looking at scheduling requests from clubs and teams has again provided some REAL challenges

Currently fixtures are still displayed in SportsTG but will be imported into WP Aust's new digital platform Revolutionise over the next few weeks

Members will still access all competition information via the Competition link on WPV's website
