County Championships are the first major championships a competitive swimmer will encounter. They are held
over a series of weekends and are similar in format to the fastest Open Meets in that there are only lower
qualification times. The
Surrey County ASA runs the County Championships with the qualification times, shedule and results published on
their web site under Age Group
Swimming. The minimum qualification times alter a little each year, usually getting faster, but the previous years can be used as a
guide.
