Question
What will be the decision of the officials if a swimmer makes a false start?
Solution
The referee will disqualify any swimmer who begins before the starting signal is given if they independently witness and validate the starter's report of a violation. It is very clear from the rule that a swimmer cannot be disqualified for a false start unless both the starter and the referee sign off. Therefore, the swimmer will be eliminated from the competition if he makes a false start.
