Harrogate Spa Town Entries 2020

Hi All,

 
Entries for the Harrogate Spa Town Graded Meet will be taken on Monday 27th January.  Swimmers are advised to enter events they will have not raced in at the Yorkshires.  

Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th March 2020 (Ages at 29th March 2020, 9 Years +)

We advise you to update your 200m short course times as you will have chance to do the 100's at the BOK Meet in April.  The BOK meet only has the 200m Freestyle out of the 200m races available.

The Harrogate meet will be a great opportunity for swimmers to try events swimmers have never swum before such as the 100 Fly, 200 Fly, 400 FS and 400 IM.    

We would also suggest entering the 50m FS and your best 50m form stroke between these two meets to keep your times up to date for Junior League selection.  
 
Please note the Harrogate Spa Town Meet is limited to 400 entries per club.  So that we can give everyone an opportunity to race we ask that swimmers do not enter more than 6 events across both days.  If 400 spaces are not filled by the entries taken on Monday evening we will reopen entries on Tuesday 28th January by email to fill any remaining spaces on a first come first serve basis.
 
Swimmers must not have swum faster than the Upper Limit Time in the previous 12 months but must have swum faster than the Lower Limit Time in the same period.  Upper and Lower Qualifying times can be seen by using the links below.  Swimmers who are wanting to try new events can use the standard times formula to work out an estimated entry time based on your PB's.  However if you do use this please make sure your estimate is within the upper and lower qualifying times Harrogate have published.


We will start signing forms now.  Please remember we will be unavailable to sign forms and discuss entries on Monday evenings as we will be coaching from 4.30pm onwards.
