The events are open to all club members, and later in this document you will find information on who can enter which event and the events your squad are expected to enter. Sevenoaks Swimming Club continues to be tremendously successful at all levels with swimmers entering a variety of competitions from local Galas to National Championships. The Club Championships provide an excellent opportunity for our swimmers to swim competitively against their peers and for the younger swimmers to gain valuable competition gala experience. This allows the coaches to assess the swimmers for squad placements, gala entries and provides licensed swim times for entries into the Kent County Championships and South East Regional Championships. Results and successes from the club championships event are celebrated at the presentation evening which will be held early in 2015. This is an excellent social event to recognise and celebrate the achievements of the club and the swimmers over the previous year and is a must attend event in the club’s annual calendar. The purpose of this document is to provide all of the information you will require relating to the club championship events. If you do need further information you should speak with your squad coaches or contact the event organisers. The championships are organised and managed by an army of volunteers. Recruitment to the volunteer army will start soon. Every swimmer entry is expected to be accompanied by an offer to help, and training for inexperienced timekeepers will be given. Changes to normal training Sessions All swimmers are invited to participate in the club championships from entry level squad to top squad, as well as masters, synchronised swimmers and water polo players and as a result, the swimming time required to run all the events is significant. As a result Club championships events do use scheduled training pool sessions so please take careful note of the schedule and, where they clash, check if your normal session is running. Further details of any cancelled sessions will be provided by email or can be found on the club website. Who can enter? All ASA registered members of Sevenoaks Swimming Club can enter the 2014 club championship events. These events are Licensed under the ASA Laws and Regulations and as such are required to be run in strict accordance with these conditions and those set out by the Promoter for the times to be recorded and accepted by the ASA for inclusion on the ASA National Ranked Database. These times can then be used to enter open galas and County Championships if qualification times are met. Full details regarding eligibility are provided in the tables below. Eligibility The table below indicates which events the swimmers can enter based upon age restrictions. Remember ages are at 31st December 2014. Girls Boys 25M Free 50M Free 100M Free 200M Free 400M Free 800M Free 1500M Free 8& Under Y Y N Y N N N 10Yrs N Y Y Y Y N N 11& Over N Y Y Y Y Y N 8& Under Y Y N Y N N N 9Yrs Y Y N Y N N N 9Yrs Y Y N Y N N N 10Yrs N Y Y Y Y N N 11Yrs N Y Y Y Y N N 12& Over N Y Y Y Y N Y 25M Back 50M Back 100M Back 200M Back Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y 25M Breast 50M Breast 100M Breast 200M Breast Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y 25M Fly 50M Fly 100M Fly 200M Fly Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y N Y Y Y 100M IM 200M IM 400M IM Y N N Y Y N Y Y Y Y Y Y Y N N Y Y N Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y = YES N = NO We would encourage you to enter as many events as you can or are eligible for and gain Licensed recorded times for future gala entry. However it is also important that the swims are competently executed to ensure a positive outcome. In order to provide further guidance each swimmer should enter the events indicated below as suggested by the squad coaches. This is especially important in the technically challenging strokes such as Butterfly over any distance. It is very important that you are able to complete the distance competently otherwise it is wasting valuable energy that could go towards a better time in the other strokes on the day. I am sure the coaches will be proactively discussing this with their swimmers, but please consult your coach for advice if you are in any doubt. It is also useful to give consideration to the information provided under Trophies and Awards when deciding which events to enter in order to ensure you can compete for all possible Awards.

How to enter? Please complete the 2014 Club Championships Entry Form ensuring the swimmer’s ASA number is entered and payment for all events entered is enclosed. Entry cost is £3.50 per event (no individual swimmer shall pay more than £35 irrespective of how many events they enter). Cheques should be payable to Sevenoaks Swimming Club. All entries will are now linked directly with the ASA rankings database. For each event entered personal best times will be automatically entered into the meet software. Only where ASA recorded time do not exist but an indication to swim has been given will manual times be entered, in line with the ‘qualifying times’ section of the Promoter’s Conditions detailed later in this document. Swimmer times can be obtained from the club website (www.sevenoakssc.org) you must be logged in. Additionally licensed meet times can be found at www.swimmingresults.org The age groups for the 2014 Club Championships Remember ages are as at 31st December 2014 Age groups for medals and ribbons will be 7, 8, 9, 10/11, 12/13, 14/15, 16/17 and 18+ Entry closing date Entries should be via website form, posted in the secure entry box at Sevenoaks Leisure Centre or handed to your Squad Club Championship Co-ordinator. Please ensure payments for website entries are made via the two other manual routes and include swimmer’s name on cheques or envelopes. th Entries shall be accepted up to and including the closing date on 10 October 2014. No late entries will be accepted. Please note it is the responsibility of the swimmer/parent to check the published entry list carefully and report errors or omissions in the requested time scale. Entry lists will be published one week after entry closing date. Swimmers will have one week to report errors or omissions. What happens after entries close? The following notes have been made to give some guidance as to what happens next in regard to the general organisation of a Gala or Meet like Club Championships. • Valid entries will be processed via the Club’s Meet software. • A report of entries will be published and distributed. • Swimmers will have an opportunity to check their entries for errors or omissions. • A full Meet programme will be produced covering all dates and events detailing all swimmers entered in all events. This can be purchased for just £4. They will be made available as soon as possible. • ‘Sign in’ sheets are produced and become available on the date of each session covering only the events in that session. Swimmers must sign in for each event at each session. • Swimmers who do not ‘sign in’ are assumed to be absent or have withdrawn themselves. • Poolside whips organise swimmers in preparation for their heats in selected lane order. • It is the individual swimmer’s responsibility to report to the stewarding area in sufficient time for their event. Stewards will not seek out absent swimmers. • Swimmers are marched across the starting block line so they can position themselves behind the correct block. • Starts will be “over the top” where possible, at the Referee’s discretion, to ensure events run to time in each session. • Timekeeper will ensure the correct swimmer is in their correct allotted lane before the swim. • Timekeepers make a note of the swimmers’ times after the heat is swum and pass these to the Chief Timekeeper. • Judges do not use a stopwatch but do record the order in which they observe swimmers finishing. • The Referee and Chief Timekeeper check the times against the Judges’ finishing order. The Referee has discretion to adjust times if for example they do not match the Judges’ finishing order. • The Judges provide details of any infringements they witness, to the Chief Timekeeper and Referee and these are noted before any final decision is made. The Referee may reject the report if there is any uncertainty of the infringement reported by the Judge. Emphasis is on ‘the benefit of doubt’ goes to the swimmer! • The Referee’s decision is final. • Results for the heats are passed to the recorders who enter all the times onto the official Meet software. • Once all the heats for an event are finished a report of the times and places for each age group are published on the day for swimmers and spectators to see. These will also be available live on the club website. • Please see the ‘trophies and awards’ section below for how winners and place-getters are rewarded. • After the session results will be sent to the ASA for inclusion on the national Ranking Database. Full results will also be published on the club website. ASA rankings can take up to five days to update. As you can see a huge amount of work and effort goes into ensuring these events run smoothly. This is why it is vital that you volunteer to help at one or more of the sessions. Timekeeping is especially important and training ahead of the competition will be provided. Terminology ‘Sign in’ ~ At every session sign in sheets are produced for each event divided into Boys and Girls. It is essential that swimmers sign in for each race at that session. Sign in takes place prior to warm up at the beginning of each session and will be open for 30 minutes to ensure everyone has plenty of time. What is an Event? ~ An event is the distance and stroke being swum for either Girls or Boys - there may be a number of age groups within an event for award purposes, eg. Girls 50m Free. What is a Heat? ~ Swimmers for each event are divided into heats. There may be 46 swimmers for an event these will be split into 8 heats - usually 4 in the first heat followed by 7 heats of 6 swimmers. This to avoid empty lanes which helps swimmers obtain their best time. What do I receive for winning my Event or Heat? ~ Events are swum as Boys or Girls in mixed age group races and heated based upon Swimmers’ entry times. This means a Swimmer can win a heat but not be the fastest for their age group in the event. Swimmers need to be the faster competitor in their gender and age group across all heats in the event to be awarded a gold medal. What happens if I get disqualified? ~ As all the events take place under A.S.A. Laws and Technical Rules qualified judges will be in place during all races to ensure Swimmers complete their events within the rules. It is not uncommon for Swimmers to occasionally be disqualified (‘DQ’d’) and while this can be disappointing, everyone experiences this at some point during their swimming career. The important thing is to learn from any mistakes. If you have been DQ'd your time will not be recorded on the results and will not appear in ‘rankings'. For clarification of DQ codes you should speak with your squad coach as they will help you rectify any problems. Trophies & Awards There are many awards and trophies available to be won at the annual club championships some of which are presented poolside and some early in 2015 at the annual presentation evening. Awards mostly fall into two categories - age group medals and ribbons and age group cups - with awards being presented for both boys and girls. There are also a number of additional open trophies and cups awarded including those for participation and endeavour and of course the hotly contested Individual Medley cups and the Laddie Chester trophy. Age Group Medals and Ribbons Are to be collected by swimmers from the medal table which will be poolside during the session in which they are won. Gold, Silver and Bronze medals are awarded for first second and third respectively with placing ribbons for fourth fifth and sixth. Medals and ribbons are awarded for all age groups in each gender as detailed below. Naturally medals and ribbons can only be won in an event you are eligible to enter as per the eligibility table. For some events an age group winner receives a cup/trophy in place of a gold medal. 25m ~ 7, 8 and 9 years 50m ~ 9 and under; 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 100m ~ 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 200m ~ 9 and under; 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 400m ~ 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 800m ~ (Girls only) 11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 1500m ~ (Boys only) 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 100m IM ~ 9 and under; 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 200m IM ~ 9 years; 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters 400m IM ~ 10/11 years; 12/13 years; 14/15 years; 16/17 years; seniors/masters Age Group Cups Age group cups are awarded for all round performance as follows:7, 8 and 9 ~ points are gained by swimmers for each stroke at 6 points for first down to 1 point for sixth.
