WINSFORD ASC CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS 2009

How the Club Champions will be decided

 

1.    Entry Times

Entry times and heats/lanes for the Club Championships will be allocated based upon the faster of:

§       the swimmer’s short course PB

§       the swimmer’s yard or long course PB converted to short course using HyTek conversion factors

between 17th October 2008 and 11th October 2009.

Please note that times more than 12 months old will not be considered for seedings or points.

The reasoning behind this is to judge results against a swimmer’s current performance.

 

2.    Club Champions

The club champions will be the winners in each sex/age group. Age groups are as follows:

7-9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17/over

Entries out of age (eg. A 10 year old swimming in a 25m or 200m race) will be time trials only.

 

3.    Points System for Top Boy & Top Girl

§       For the purposes of calculating points, a swimmer’s PB = entry time. See note 1 above

§       If a swimmer does not have a time within the last year, then he/she cannot win points for the relevant event

§       Swims out of age do not qualify for positions or points
