Tudor League Galas

There are 8 participating clubs in this B grade league which is run through the year from October to June in 8 rounds at Eltham pool. At each gala only 6 clubs compete and 2 clubs dropout.

Individual events are 1 length for all strokes. Age groups for events are 10years, 12 years and under, 14 years and under, open (any age). 9 year olds can only enter the relay events. All ages are as at 31st December in the year of the competition. Swimmers can only compete in two individual races of their own age group.

The Tudor galas have a set time per event which disqualifies (time faults) swimmers who are faster than that time. This is to ensure that clubs do not enter swimmers who are far too good for the grade of the gala.
