50M Freestyle Championship
This week we have our first Championship Race and it’s the splash for cash – Freestyle over 50M.
A quick recap on the arrangements for Championship races:
The order of races will be (male then female):
- Senior swimmers
- 16 years and under
- 14 years and under
- 12 years and under
- 10 years and under
- 9 years and under
- 8 years and under (30M Freestyle)
- 6 years and under (20M Freestyle)
- and finally the Open race for the fastest swimmers on the day
Competitors in the open events will be the eight fastest swimmers on the day, irrespective of age for the particular event.
When one or more of the eight qualifying swimmers does not swim (i.e too tired to swim or saving themselves for a later event), then the allocation of other swimmers to that event will be based on swim times starting from the next fastest swimmer.
Lanes in championship races are allocated on the basis of Club times with the fastest swimmer in lane 4, second fastest in lane 5, third fastest in lane 3 and so forth. When there are more than eight swimmers, the swimmers will be divided into heats according to their times with the fastest heat having the maximum number of swimmers, provided there is a minimum of three swimmers in any other heat.
Age groupings for Championships are determined by the member’s age at the 1st October 2020.
