Some swimmers (mainly new swimmers and under 8 years) will not be entered into breaststroke, butterfly and IM because they are not ready to do these strokes. Carole will speak to you if this is what we decide or you can go and speak to her.

About the OPENS: These events are for the top 5 swimmers at each age. Open events are 50m races and use crossover age ranges: 8-9, 10-11, 12-13, 14+, giving the better swimmers an opportunity to race against a different age group.
