SNC Swimwear Rules
ALL swimmers participating in a SNC designated meet or provincially sanctioned meets
shall be required to comply with swimwear rule GR 5 as follows:
GR 5 – Swimwear
GR 5.1 The swimwear (swimsuit, cap and goggles) of all competitors shall be in
good moral taste and suitable for the individual sports disciplines and not to carry
any symbol which may be considered offensive.
GR 5.2 All swimsuits shall be non transparent.
CGR 5.2.1.1 A swimmer may wear only one swimsuit in competition, and shall
observe all FINA
regulations related to swimwear as stated in the FINA Bylaws and Rules
GR 5.3 The referee of a competition has the authority to exclude any competitor
whose swimsuit or body symbols do not comply with this Rule.
GR 5.4 Before any swimwear of new design, construction or material is used in
competition, the manufacturer of such swimwear must submit the swimwear to FINA and
obtain approval of FINA.
FINA BL 8.3 From January 1, 2010 swimwear for men shall not exceed above the
navel nor below the knee, and for women, shall not cover the neck, extend past the
shoulder, nor shall extend below knee. All swimsuits shall be made from textile
materials.
SNC has made the following interpretations for GR 5:
All swimwear used in competition in Canada must appear on the FINA approved list with the
following exceptions:
 Where a swimwear manufacturer has not submitted swimwear to FINA for approval
due to the swimwear no longer being in production, SNC reserves the right to allow
such swimwear where it can be confirmed that the swimwear conforms to the
shape, design and material conditions outline in FINA BL 8.3 (above).
 Under GR 5.3 wherein it is stated “the competitor must wear a swimsuit in one
or two pieces…” SNC interprets this to mean a swimmer is limited to wearing a
single suit only and where the suit is “two pieces” that the pieces do not overlap
each other and are distinct units (i.e. bikini style).
 All Canadian Record applications will be reviewed to ensure compliance with GR 5.
A Declaration of Swimwear must be submitted with the application to ensure
compliance.
 All foreign swimmers competing in Canada will be required to comply with GR 5
 Any swimmer not complying with GR 5 shall be disqualified
