 Swim England Competitive Swimming Performance (CSP) Awards The CSP award scheme aims to reward young swimmers in their first years of competitive swimming, encouraging them to focus on their strokes, turns and finishes, as well as speed in order to achieve better swim times for each stroke. There are 3 types of performance award which relate to the length of the swim:
Times for each stroke are graded at 4 levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Once a swimmer achieves or breaks a time for any stroke at that level they can claim a cloth badge which relates to the distance (i.e. Sprint Bronze Award) and the relevant stroke flash (ie Bronze Butterfly Flash). Swimmers can track their progress by collecting further flashes as times are achieved for each stroke at that distance. The awards can be achieved in competition or at organized time trials. The performance table below shows the length of the pool, distance, stroke and times required to achieve these awards. The CSP Awards can be purchased through the club by emailing [email protected] Please can orders be submitted by 31st March Distance Awards (certificate & woven badge) £3.45 Stroke flash £1.45 Invoices will be issued through Swim Manager. Here is an example of where and how the awards can be sewn on to the swimmers T-shirt, showing the different grades and strokes achieved by the swimmer.   PBs can be checked on Swim Manager to see if your swimmer has achieved the requirements. Times have been updated with results from the recent Chorley Marlins Spring Sprint Meet which can also be viewed here.
