Personal Best Times
Personal bests are a crucial motivator for swimmers, driving them to continually improve. Tracking these times, whether from official meets or non-licensed events, provides a clear measure of progress and achievement. Our system categorises times into three tabs: All PBs, Short Course PBs, and Long Course PBs.
This organisation helps swimmers quickly understand their performance across different pool lengths and highlights their growth and development. Celebrating personal bests fosters a sense of accomplishment, motivating swimmers to set and achieve new goals.
Analysing PBs offers additional benefits:
- Performance Insights: By examining trends and patterns in personal bests, swimmers can identify strengths and areas needing improvement.
- Targeted Training: Coaches and swimmers can develop more effective training plans tailored to specific needs.
- Goal Setting: Continuous analysis helps in setting realistic and achievable goals, ensuring steady progress.
- Motivation and Confidence: Tracking improvements boosts confidence and keeps swimmers motivated to push their limits.
Overall, the detailed analysis of personal bests provides a comprehensive view of a swimmer’s progress, aiding in their continuous development and success.
Positional Finishes for the current year
Positional finishes are an excellent feature for all swimmers, particularly younger ones who often focus on winning medals. This feature allows swimmers to track their placement in races throughout the year, providing a clear view of their competitive progress.
Benefits of Analysing Positional Finishes:
- Performance Insights: Identifying trends in race positions helps swimmers understand their competitive standing.
- Motivation: Tracking placements can inspire swimmers to improve and achieve higher rankings.
- Goal Setting: Helps set realistic and achievable goals based on past performance.
- Progress Tracking: Provides a year-round overview of improvements and consistency in race placements.
While especially beneficial for young athletes, this tool is valuable for anyone looking to monitor their race positions and achievements over time. By keeping a record of positional finishes, swimmers can celebrate their successes and stay motivated to improve.
County Times (UK Only)
All of your times from licensed events during the current period are compared with the latest county qualifying standards, ensuring you have instant visibility into which races you have qualified for. By highlighting qualifying times in green, you can easily track your progress. This feature allows you to focus your training efforts more effectively, saving energy for races you still need to qualify for. Stay updated on your performance and make informed decisions in collaboration with your coaches for upcoming meets.
Stroke Analysis
Understanding the strokes you swim and the frequency of each provides valuable insights into your preferences and performance. This data can help identify your strengths and areas needing improvement, allowing you to develop a targeted training regimen. By recognising which strokes you excel at and which require more attention, you can work with your coach to create a balanced training plan that enhances your overall swimming skills and versatility. This approach ensures a well-rounded development and improved performance across all strokes.
