Short Course to Long Course Time Conversions
When entering Long Course (50m pool) events entry times must be Long Course based
If a swimmer does not have a Long Course time of the event, or a time that is valid, for certain gala's it is acceptable to convert a swimmers Short Course (25m pool) time, this is done using the following process
Go to the Pullbuoy website at http://www.pullbuoy.co.uk/times
Once you get the PullBouy Time Conversions screen up
1 - Select Short Course to Long Course in the first box
2 - Then select the event e.g. 50 Freestyle
3 - Then select Gender e.g. Female
4 - Then enter the Short Course Time e.g 00:29.83
5 - Click on the ASA Tables Button
and hey presto you should get a converted time of 00:30.53
