Challenge Set #3 has wrapped up and the results are now available! We have half way done the Challenge Set Initiative, which means it’s time to award the interim awards. The top 3 performances in each age group category and the top 1 for varsity & para will receive $50 gift certificates from both Team Aquatic Supplies and Racetek. We are only half done, so keep up the hard work as there are more awards to win.
All the interim award winners are listed below. These swimmers will receive their awards at the end of the Challenge Set Initiative in June. Full results are available on our Results page.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic and Provincial Health Order restrictions, Swim BC will be running a Spring – Summer edition of the Officially Unofficial Rankings. This popular initiative saw over 1,100 swimmers participate from 31 teams in our December – January edition of the program.
This initiative is an opportunity for all clubs in BC to share performances whether they are from a race rehearsal in workout, a get-out swim or one last rep in a descending set. (If a time comes when time trials or swim meets are permitted, they will also be accepted.)
With lessons learned, there are several modifications to this edition of the OU Rankings. The program is summarized below:
When:April 26th through June 13,2021
Where:Club training session (or if permitted – scheduled time trial or swim meet.)
Who: All Swim BC Swimmers who are fully registered and in a Competitive Category
Events:All Olympic, Paralympic and World Championship events, Short Course Meters and Long Course Meters (Separate Rankings)
Age Groups:10 & Under; 11 – 12; 13 – 14; 15 – 17; 18 & Over
