IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDS QUALIFICATION TIMES.
Due to the lack of competitive swimming, setting the qualifying times for this years championship has been extremely challenging. The times have been set with the following in mind; protecting the standard of competition whilst endeavouring to determine the impact that Covid-19 has had on the times attained by the swimmers, in a relatively short qualifying window. The qualifying criteria has be relaxed considerably to mitigate for this, however, it may result in more rejections than in previous years. Please note there are no automatic qualifying times this year.
All times submitted must be verified on British Swimming Rankings, i.e. times achieved at a licensed L4-L1 competition or British Swimming Level X Rankings, and must have been attained within the qualifying time period as per the promoters conditions.
All clubs must ensure that they are familiar with condition No. 28 of the Promoter’s Conditions to prevent fines and withdrawals of swimmers and relay teams who repeatedly fail to comply with this condition.
Please also note: This year, once again the entry system will be paperless; please therefore, read the promoters conditions and entry documentation carefully.
The Hy-tek file will be issued in due course.
This year - in order to control the numbers of swimmer poolside and to prevent overcrowding - only one relay team entry per age group per event is permitted, please therefore do not submit additional relay entries.
Changes to the 2022 programme
