BCSSA Provincial Championships 2012
Making a Big Splash... On Island Time

The 2012 Championships are scheduled for August 13th - 19th, 2012

BCSSA is excited to be moving over to the Island for a week during the 2012 Provincial Championships, hosted by the Vancouver Island Organizing Committee (VIOC) and BCSSA. The meet will be held at the Nanaimo Aquatic Centre in Nanaimo. The pool is close to the Ice Rinks and Vancouver Island University.

We hope that the information provided on this page, will give athletes and their families useful information about Nanaimo and the Provincial Championship Venue.

BCSSA is making an effort to reduce our waste at the Provincial Championships. We ask that deck officials and volunteers bring a Coffee Mug and/or a Reusable Water Bottle as we want to reduce the amount of Styrofoam cups and disposable water bottles we use. Thank-You!

Competition Schedule
August 13th to 15th - Water Polo
August 15th & 16th - Diving and Synchronized Swimming
August 17th to 19th - Speed Swimming

Those who wish to bring their RV to the Provincial Championships will need to make a reservation online and pay the associated fees. All reservations will be done online.

Accommodations in Nanaimo

The BCSSA has been informed that as of October 2011 almost all room at local hotels have been booked. We suggest calling around and putting your name on waiting lists and try to secure yourself a room. The only other option is staying in a hotel in either Parksville or Ladysmith, which is just outside of Nanaimo. The Vancouver Island University dorms are also filling up and the Local Committee will do their best to try and get more rooms for participants.
