Whilst National Qualifying Times (NQTs) are the mechanism to enable event organisers to control the number of people accepted for an event, they are often used by coaches and seen by parents as an achievement of a standard.

If you have achieved a Regional or National qualifying time and it is not listed below, please contact the Communications Office with the details so we can update our records.

Information on Qualifying Times

All Qualifying Times from National down to County (e.g. Shropshire) are based on the previous years entries. If the QT is too easy then far too many swimmers can compete - if it is too hard then the reverse is true.

Please read ASA Success is Long Term ( 1.34Mb) for full explanation of British Age Group Categories (BAGCAT), and how various open meets throughout the season are designed to complement a swimmer's training at different ages of development, and different levels of competition (National, Regional, County).
