About Swim BC Time Standards:
Swim BC Time Standards are based on BC swimming results and are derived from a formula agreed on by the Swim BC Technical Advisory Committee (TAC).
There are a couple of significant changes from past iterations of the time standards:
- There are now separate 15-year-old and 16&O standards.
- The standards for BC AAA Champs LONG COURSE are 1% FASTER than the standards for Short Course champs; a swimmer can still qualify for Long Course Champs with short course times, of course, but both the LC and SC standards for Long Course Champs are 1% faster than they are for Short Course Champs.
