Routine 6 monthly County Rankings

Lincs ASA Executive Committee decided at its last meeting to end routine 6 monthly County rankings. The reasons are: leagues can now be licensed and therefore the times from licensed leagues will appear in the British Swimming rankings. All competition swim times except splits can now be submitted to British Swimming rankings. Usually fewer than half of club records officers submit times for these rankings and so they are incomplete. The task of submitting times is very arduous for club records officers involving numerous long to short course times conversions. Now that nearly all competition swim times can be viewed on line, in both personal and rankings formats, compiling county rankings seems an unnecessary labour for all concerned. Swimmers who wish to know how they rank at Club County Regional or National level, short course or long course, any stroke and distance can easily get this information from the British Swimming website: https://www.swimmingresults.org/12months/.

Selection rankings for inter-county competitions form the basis for county team selection and will of course continue to be compiled and distributed to the selectors.
