 Changes to BAGCAT Point Scoring in Competitions from 1st January 2010
The ASA Swimming Committee has agreed that from 1st January 2010 all ASA events will use the FINA Points tables for scoring purposes in competitions in place of the GB points system.
Comparative Performance Points Tables have been used in the UK since the 1970's in order to compare swimming times across the standard range of strokes and distances. British Swimming has used LEN (the European Governing Body) and more recently, FINA (the World Governing Body) tables. Both of these are based on world performances and reflect the parity between events at the top level of the sport. These have been used for scoring major open team competitions and are accepted by the swimming community as provision of a fair comparison across the range of events.
