In view of
the comments we have received regarding the fact that the
events counting for BAGCAT awards were not published on the
website until after the closing date and the problems we
have had in finalising the BAGCAT points, we have decided to
revert to last year’s set of events.
If any
swimmer (up to 12 yrs of age) is disadvantaged by this and
would have been placed in the top eight, using the events
published in the programme, we will still invite them to
join the Development Squad."
The points
have been calculated from the FINA Points Tables
The FINA
Points Table allows comparisons of results among different
events. The FINA Points Table assigns point values to
swimming performances, more points for world class
performances typically 1000 or more and fewer points for
slower performances. The base times are defined every year,
based on the latest World Record that was approved by FINA.
For short course (SCM) the base times are defined with the
cut of date of August 31st. For long course (LCM) the base
times are defined at the end of the year (December 31st).
