CLUB NIGHT / POINT SCORE

Club Night / Point Score is held each Tuesday night throughout the summer season. It is a great opportunity for swimmers of ALL ages and ALL abilities to race in a non-competitive atmosphere. Not only do our swimmers have fun, but it is also an opportunity for parents to socialise in a relaxed environment. At the conclusion of the night’s events, we have our famous BBQ. The pool canteen is also open, selling drinks and sweets etc.

At the beginning of each summer season, swimmers start off in the same grade as they finished the previous season. For new swimmers, their first night’s times will be a trial and they will be graded accordingly. Point Score grades DO NOT reflect what squad you are in for training. We ask that swimmers report to the marshall at the start of each pointscore night.

Download the Swim Club Connect App to Enter or Withdraw from Club Night events up until 7:30pm the evening prior.

Results are available LIVE immediately after each race!

Points are awarded each night you swim, based on YOUR improvement. It does NOT matter where you finish in a race, it’s all about improving your own PB! 

We need LOTS of parent helpers each Point Score Night to help make it run smoothly. When the call goes out for help, please offer your services to help out at one of the following jobs: Timekeeping, Marshalling, pack up, helping out with the BBQ and setting up of food. The club encourages ALL parents to assist and join the fun – no experience necessary! if we do not have enough parent help at Point Score, the nights will not be able to be run.

Once the Point Score events have finished for the night there is STRICTLY NOBODY ALLOWED IN THE POOL, whilst the BBQ is on, unless you are helping with the removal of the lane ropes – this is a rule of Tamworth Regional Council. We also must be vacated from the Pool Grounds by 7.45pm each Tuesday.

At our Annual Presentation Night, trophies are awarded to the swimmers who have gained the most points in each grade/each stroke.

* Point Score has four different grades:

D GRADE – For beginners or new members. Swimmers will do 25m of each stroke, 100m Individual Medley and a 50m distance swim. All new members must start in D Grade (regardless of ability) and progress from there, once the times have been broken for each stroke.

C GRADE-  Once swimmers have achieved certain times they then move up to C Grade. C Grade swimmers will do the following swims – 50m of each stroke, 100m Medley and a 100m Distance Swim.

B GRADE – Once swimmers have achieved certain times they then move up to B Grade. B Grade swimmers will do the following swims – 100m Freestyle, Backstroke & Breaststroke, 50m Butterfly, 200m Individual Medley and a 200m Distance Swim.

A GRADE –  Once swimmers go to A Grade, they will do the following swims –  50m & 100m of all strokes, 200m Individual Medley and a 200/400m Distance swim.
