Swimming

Scoring: Points will be awarded for both individual and relay events. All individual events will be scored 10-1 & Relay events will be scored double 20-2. Failure to field a swimmer for any event will be scored as last place. The final standings will be scored as an accumulation of points from all Male, Female & Mixed events. In the event of a points tie, the best Mixed Relay team time will be the tie-breaker.

• Starting before the starting signal
• Not touching the wall at each end (Turn and Finish)
• Not completing the distance of the event
• Wrong stroke being swum
• Any unsporting behaviour
