AGE GROUP SWIMMING
BAGCAT
(British Age Group Categories) Based on Fina points are awarded
to children up to the age of 14, swimming in many Galas. The
real significance is when your child swims at County, Region
or National Level. Points are then awarded according to their
recorded time. The points for your child's best swims in certain
events are then added up.
The events that "count" towards the BAGCAT total vary by age and gender and the level of the competition.
At the end of the
County Championships, Region and Nationals competitions, your
child will receive a BAGCAT certificate stating their position
in the competition and the categories in which they swam and
the times recorded regardless of the position they finished.
