15 & 25 Yard Assisted Swim:
Each athlete is responsible for having his/her own coach/assistant.  The assistant may touch, guide or direct the athlete, but may not support or assist the athlete’s forward movement.  The athlete may use a flotation device.  The assistant may be in the pool or on deck.

15 Yard Flotation & 25 Yard Flotation Swim:
Each athlete is responsible for his/her own flotation device*.  These races do not allow physical assistance by coaches or volunteers once the race has begun.  However, coaches may assist athletes to hold their position at the start line, prior to the start of the race.  

15 Yard Unassisted Swim:  
Athletes must swim the entire distance without assistance or flotation.  Coaches may offer encouragement and direction to athletes from outside the pool, only.  This event is basically a 15 yard Freestyle.  

*Flotation Devices:  Athletes are responsible for his/her own flotation, which must be a U.S. Coast Guard approved device. Flotation devices such as kickboards, swim belts, inner tubes or floats that wrap around arms are not acceptable.
