Swimmers training programs will be based around these competitions, these competitions are essential for the swimmers development. Optional Competitions which complement the training program.

Levels of Open Meets

There are four tiers of structured competition. Open Meets will be licensed according to the purpose of their competition as Level 1, 2, 3 or 4.

Level 1 is aimed at National qualifiers, or swimmers close to National qualification, looking for opportunities to achieve National qualifying times. These meets will have qualifying times for entry, which will be just below the national times. (see Section on Qualifying Times and UpperLimit Times)
Level 2 is aimed at District qualifiers and will have qualifying times and upper limit times. Access to the ASA ranking information could be used to enable meet organisers to verify that entry times submitted by swimmers fall within the stated range.
Level 3 is for Club swimmers who looking for County qualifying times and again would have qualifying and upper limit times set at an appropriate level. These meets would provide a programme throughout the year to support the requirements of swimmers below District level.
Level 4 It is intended that the system of licensing may ultimately develop to include a fourth level for club swimmers and those beginning competition through initiatives such as Active Sports.
National qualifying times are accepted from meets licensed at Level 1 & 2
District qualifying times are accepted from meets licensed at Level 1, 2 & 3

Crewe Flyers aims to enable, through excellence in training and coaching, all club members to achieve their full potential, providing competition appropriate to their abilities. The Club aims to help swimmers achieve these objectives within a safe and fun environment.
