The major awards for the Club season will include a Most Improved Award for each age group.  The incentive will be for swimmers to swim all strokes as often as possible and to maintain or improve their own standard.  This is measured by aggregating points allocated for each swim in relation to the previous best time for each stroke/distance as per the following table.

• More than 2.50 secs slower than previous PB 1 point
• From  2.49 secs to  1.50 secs slower than previous PB 2 points
• From 1.49 secs  to  0.50 secs slower than previous PB 3 points
• From  0.49 secs to  0.02 secs slower than previous PB 4 points
• From 0.01 secs slower to 0.49 secs faster than previous PB 5 points
• From 0.50 secs to 1.49 secs faster  than previous PB 6 points
• From 1.50 secs to  2.49 secs faster than previous PB 7 points
• More than  2.50 secs faster than previous PB 8 points

On a day on which a swimmer is competing for the Club in a BSA carnival a swimmer will be credited with 3 points for each event up to a maximum of 4 events.  However, swimmers will not receive points for both club meets and BSA carnivals on the same weekend.

Points will accumulate separately for boys and girls in each group.  A Most Improved Trophy will be awarded to the boy and girl in each age group who accumulate the most points in all strokes throughout the season.

Points will be allocated for the four 4 individual strokes over 25 and 50 metre distances.  No points will be allocated for the individual medley or events swum at the Coaches’ instructions.
