How swimming meets work

Meets are competitions where swimmers enter individual events using their personal best times. Swim England licenses meets at four levels:

๐Ÿฅ‡Levels 1 & 2

The highest grade, with strict qualifying times. Level 1 runs in 50m pools, Level 2 in 25m pools.

๐ŸฅˆLevel 3

Where swimmers chase times for County and Regional Championship entry โ€” with upper and lower time limits.

๐Ÿฅ‰Level 4

For club swimmers and newcomers โ€” generally no minimum qualifying times. The perfect first meet.
