Classified Para Swimmers
Please ensure classification codes (S, SB, SM etc) are entered. (These should be retrieved from the ASA database – if using ‘Get Member’ function). We do not publish separate qualification times for Para Swimmers, so any classified swimmer will be accepted in principle. Please use the ‘Get Times’ function to retrieve latest times. If the swimmer does not have the time or time is too slow (box turns YELLOW) – please click the box until you get a green YES. Detail any Para Swimmer in your mail to the entry manager when sending the entry file.
YES Entries
Only in exceptional circumstances will ‘YES’ entries be accepted for able-bodied swimmers. Do NOT use ‘YES’ entries to override entries retrieved from the ASA Database which are too slow – i.e. box turns YELLOW. If you believe you have a genuine case, please email galas@cityofsunderlandasc.co.uk to explain.
