Pansy Forbes 1 & 2 Routine Incentive Awards & Solo Pin Award

 
Synchro Swim Ontario celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Pansy Forbes Routine Incentive Awards

Synchro Swim Ontario is pleased to announce that the Pansy Forbes Routine Incentive Awards and Solo Pin Award were updated for 2004 to align with the Synchro Ontario Trillium Awards Program. The ideals and goals of the Pansy Forbes Incentive Awards, which were first developed in 1979, have been maintained while incorporating the skills learned in the Trillium Awards Program to build creative and fun routines. The Pansy Forbes Incentive Awards and the Solo Pin Award were developed to accommodate the growing number of swimmers interested in experiencing synchronized swimming, and designed to fill the needs of recreational swimmers of all ages, male and female, as well as special populations. The award stresses the accomplishments of the participants and is designed to combine strokes, skills,
sculls and creativity. The Pansy Forbes Incentive Awards are an added dimension to enrich existing programs for the many who participate in recreational synchro programs.

The Pansy Forbes 1 Routine Incentive Award now incorporates skills learned in Trilliums 1 and 2, the Pansy Forbes 2 Routine Incentive Award includes skills learned in Trilliums 3 and 4, and the Solo Pin Award includes skills learned in Trilliums 5 and 6. Now swimmers participating in the Trillium Awards program or in the Star Program can use the skills they have learned to earn additional awards for creating routines.
The Pansy Forbes Incentive Award and Solo Pin Award may be used by any registered Synchro Ontario Trillium Program, competitive or recreational club, or varsity or scholastic program. Synchro Ontario has created new instructor sheets and test sheets detailing the award requirements which are available from the Synchro Ontario office, as well as additional award program support such as pattern ideas. Pansy Forbes 1 and 2 Incentive Award badges, as well as the Solo Pin Award are available to order from the Synchro Ontario office. Any Trillium Instructor, Synchro Instructor, CBET/NCCP Level 1 Coach or higher, or official Judge 1 or higher may examine Pansy Forbes 1 and 2 and the Solo Pin Award. For more information or questions about the new Pansy Forbes and Solo pin programs, please contact the Synchro Ontario office at 905-572-7962 ext. 223 or email Karen at kwilsondavis@synchroontario.com.
