TOPS
Tiny Olympic Prospects (TOPs) is a program run by Swimnews magazine that encourages distance swimming for athletes 10 years and younger. Olympians Swimming participates in TOPS three times a year. Distance swimming is important component of athlete development because:
it is easier for younger swimmers to see significant improvements in time in distance races than in sprinting races
physiologically speaking, younger athletes possess only aerobic energy systems that make distance swimming easier than sprinting
Distances required by SwimNews in order to get the time published in the magazine are:
