Please also note: That I am still looking into a paperless application process, however, unless you are notified otherwise the promoter’s condition that allows one week after the closing date to submit paper entry forms remains in place and failure to comply may result in the clubs entry being withdrawn.

Changes to the 2019 programme
Please note that in line with the Swim England Competition Pathway we have introduced 12 years and over 1500m & 800 meter Freestyle for both boys and girls, these events will be swam in mixed heats determined by entry time, however these will be Championship events with heat declared winners for both the girls and the boys independent of one another.
In line with my previous correspondence unfortunately, after a protracted dialogue with the Regional Licensing Panel regarding the structure of the meet and its compliance with the Swimming Competition Pathway, we have regrettably determined in conjunction with the Regional Licensing Panel to drop the 100m IM from the meet schedule.
Photography this year will be permitted, I would appreciate however you sharing the attached policy along with the meet documentation with your members.
Finally, as the result of a significant increase in pool hire, the entry fee has been increased from £6.00 to £7.00 for an individual event and from £6.00 to £8.00 for a relay.

Also please note: Point 9 of the promoters conditions allows 1 week after closing date to submit paper entry forms, failure to comply may results in the clubs entry being withdrawn.
16+ age group
Some of you may be aware that the license requirements for County Championship competitions gives the upper age group of 16 & over (this was a desirable condition at first but is now mandatory).
We are well aware that this will have a detrimental effect on the retention of 16 year olds in speed swimming, having to compete with open swimmers for places in a final with potentially only 1 or two 16 year olds getting in to finals. Peter and myself have been working hard on solutions to address this and comply with the license requirements. So with that in mind the Promoters Conditions have been amended:
1. Junior Championships will remain 16 years and under as at 31/12 in year of competition.
2. Junior Records to remain 16 years and under as at 31/12 in year of competition.
3. The 16 & Over Age group will consist of an A & B Final.
a. Open championship awards will be made to those placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd from the 16 & Over A final and the 15 and under age group finals in 50m & 100m events.
b. Junior championship awards will be made to those placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd from the 16 & Over A or B final and the 15 and under age group finals in 50m & 100m.
