April 2024 Tritons Swim Team Challenge
Flag2Flag Freestyle Challenge

The first monthly challenge for the Tritons will be the Flag2Flag Freestyle challenge! To complete the challenge, each swimmer must have the following:

  • Have a time for the 50 Free (if new and/or do not have an updated time, a coach may give you an unofficial time from a practice)
  • Be timed going into the wall for a flipturn and swimming back for a total of 10 yards. The stopwatch will be started the moment any part of the swimmer passes the backstroke flags, and time will be stopped the moment any part of the swimmer reaches the flags following a Freestyle flipturn.

Scores will be calculated based on the time received during the challenge and the proportional speed compared to the swimmer's best 50 Free time. The formula used will be:

(100)(3+[((50 PB) / 5) - (challenge time)])

Below are some example scores to help illustrate the magic of the math:

 

swimmer Timed Result 50 pb (50pb)/5 SCORE
swimmer A 4.3 24.5 4.9 360
swimmer B 4.6 22.89 4.578 297.8
swimmer C 9.8 34.6 6.92 12
swimmer D 9 34.6 6.92 92
swimmer E 9.65 55.56 11.112 446.2

 

Once results are submitted, they will be calculated and shared here!
