End of Season Trophies
Trophies are awarded to swimmers depending on where they finished on the points ladder. Points are earned from the 4 form strokes throughout the season at Club Nights. Separate trophies are awarded for points earned from the Special Events. The system is designed to encourage swimmers to keep trying to achieve a higher level. Swimmers who swim every club night and attempt all strokes will have a better prospect of a points trophy. The system rewards effort and consistency.
Swimmers may nominate for one or more strokes during the night and must swim the distance to qualify for club points.
No points will be awarded to swimmers participating in 12.5m events. There will be no Club Championships for this distance. |
