Commentary by Trina Sanyal, Swimming World Intern 2016 CeraVe Invitational
Chris Barry, the meet referee of the BAC CeraVe invitational, is perhaps the most energetic person I have ever met. His unwavering enthusiasm and vitality radiates off of him and transfers like magic to every person he talks to. Barry’s job is to essentially oversee everything and he is the perfect man for the job.
Before every meet, Chris Barry must coordinate stroke briefings and time briefings. This job essentially means guiding volunteers, staff, and competitors through regulations. While he worked at the administration official table, he explained the complexities of the timing system.
He explained that he was responsible for facilitating the stop watches, in case the touch pad system or the plunger button did not work. His extensive knowledge of the timing regulations as well as his extensive knowledge on the ins and outs of tournament regulations, proved him to have mastered the level of detail necessary for managing such a large event. This comes as no surprise since Mr. Barry has been a meet referee for 10 years.
