Sunday Club Nights
There is no cost to participate in Club Night events.
Club nights are run by the club to give swimmers the opportunity to test their skills and measure their improvement. They are not a measure of how well you perform against others but events are seeded.
There is an annual award given to both the best male and female which is calculated on the most improved points accumulated over the year. This is a measure against a swimmer’s own recorded times.
This means that a swimmer is awarded points depending on how much they have improved from their previous swims.
Points range from 1 to 6
1 point for a first swim or same as or slower than previous swims.
6 points for a PB which is 2 seconds or faster than previous PB time.
2 to 6 points are awarded depending on the range of improvement.
Points are not awarded for race placings or relay events. The swimmer is racing against their own times which is a great way to encourage swimmers to improve!
All points are calculated by computer using the Meet Manager program.
Entering Club Night.
The different club night programs are listed by week. Although the club will endeavour to adhere to the calendar there may be some changes depending on entries.
25M events are only open to swimmers 8 years of age & under.
Swimmers are to choose one distance of each stroke.
If a swimmer doesn’t wish to do the 200M event they may choose one of the other strokes they have done.
All swimmers should be competing in 4 events each week which is the maximum allowed.
The club discourages late entries and expects entry to be as requested by the competitions officer in advance. This is so the program can be produced prior to the event and not changed on the night!
