Swim to the T.O.P.

Triumph - Obtain - Pursue

Swim to the T.O.P. is an incentive program for our Piranhas swimmers. Swimmers are able to obtain three different levels of achievement by meeting the time standards for each individual event. Once each time standard is met, swimmers will be rewarded with a special T.O.P. tag.

The three levels of achievement:

• Blue:
  • Triumph = Meet of Champs Qualifier. Earn this tag by meeting the qualifying time for MOC in your individual events.
• Yellow:
  • Obtain = TOP 25% Club. Earn this by achieving the Yellow time standard in your age group for each individual event. These times are based on the 25% place time in each individual event by age group at Champs the previous year.
• White:
  • Pursue = TOP 50% Club. Earn this by achieving the White time standard in your age group for each individual event. These times are based on the 50% place time in each individual event by age group at Champs the previous year.

Every swimmer has the opportunity to earn the T.O.P. tags at every swim meet. Lanyards are used to attach the T.O.P. tags and will be given to the swimmer when they achieve their first T.O.P. tag. Returning swimmers that already earned a lanyard last year will continue to attach their tags to last year’s earnings — another lanyard will not be given. Swimmers can display it on their swim bag or attach it anywhere they like. Lost T.O.P. tags and lanyards will not be replaced. Swimmers will be able to pick up their T.O.P. tags at practices designated throughout the week and at designated meets. T.O.P. tags will not be available the same day as the meet. Meet times must be official and verified.
