Media protocol
Media Protocol
The media protocol has been designed to help
achieve an understanding between all media
and those representing British Swimming. It
aims to create opportunities for the media as
well as appreciate the commitments of athletes
and staff. This media protocol will be utilised
leading up to and during all international
competitions. The protocol recognises that
everybody is present at a major competition to
do a job – whether they are athletes, coaching
staff or the media. Each group experiences its
own pressure to deliver, however, consideration
of each other’s circumstances, roles and
responsibilities will help ensure everybody has a
successful and productive experience.
ACCESS TO THE NATIONAL PERFORMANCE
DIRECTOR DURING COMPETITION
Media requests in relation to the National Performance
Director should go through the Media Liaison. Those
wishing to put a question to the National Performance
Director should provide as much notice as possible so the
Media Liaison can identify a window of opportunity to
respond. If the National Performance Director is unable
to respond in person, the Media Liaison will pass on their
views. During the competition the National Performance
Director will only give views on the performances of British
www.swimming.org
athletes and the team as a whole. Due to the demands of
the job at hand, the National Performance Director’s time
will be limited so as much prior notice to any requests
would be greatly appreciated.
ACCESS TO BRITISH COACHES DURING
COMPETITION
After the final event of the day a coach or coaches with
relevance to that evening’s finals will be available to the
media at a location within the venue. This will be coordinated through the Media Liaison. These coaches will
only speak on their athlete’s performance. Comments on
the overall team performance will only be given by the
National Performance Director.
ACCESS TO ATHLETES OR COACHING STAFF
DURING COMPETITION
Requests for interviews with athletes or team coaching
staff must go through the Media Liaison. Whereas media
deadlines will always be considered, these interviews
will be arranged at a time the athlete or coach can be
made available. This is obviously due to the demands of
the competition on time. Athletes and team coaches will
only comment on their relevant performances. Overall
comments will be provided by the National Performance
Director via the Media Liaison.

Media protocol
Access to athletes and coaches will be limited to the
official mixed zone, press conferences or through prior
arrangements made via the Media Liaison. All athletes
will be encouraged to speak to the media, however, due
to the need to recover by ‘’swimming/warming down’’
immediately after an event, time in the mixed zone will
be limited and it is envisaged the media will collect at a
good vantage point to be informed as a group rather than
as individuals. The swimmers have between three to six
minutes from the time they’ve finished their race to get to
the swim down pool. Within this time there is a need to
service all areas of the mixed zone - broadcast and
print - fairly.
The swim down pool is off limits to all media as indicated
by accreditation. No member of the British Swimming
squad will be available at swim down. The Media Liaison
will try to obtain quotes from athletes if, for whatever
reason, access has been limited further. These will
hopefully be provided before swim-down or drug testing.
If it is not possible to meet these needs then interviews
may take place following warm-down. Where a swimmer
has an event the next morning, there will be no post
swimdown interviews that evening.
When an athlete has finished their final event of the
championships they will be free to consider additional
media requests made via the Media Liaison. Efforts will be
made to meet these as long as they don’t impact on the
rest of the team.
MEDIA NOT PRESENT AT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS
Not all media will be accredited for international events
but the Media Liaison and Media Team in the UK will
try to look after all enquiries via phone or email. The
same protocols should be followed. Athletes, staff or the
National Performance Director should not be contacted
directly. Their time is limited and therefore the Media
Liaison will arrange for information to be forwarded at a
convenient moment.
If photographers require access to members of the squad
for non-action shots away from the competition then all
requests should be made through the Media Liaison.
For all media interviews, athletes and staff will only wear
British Swimming kit supplied for the event by the team
sponsor apart from unbranded swimsuits.
All interviews will only involve representatives of the British
Swimming team. No persons outside of the team will be
allowed to contribute to an interview involving a British
Swimming squad member.
No team member or programme-supported athlete is
allowed to be part of any media team during camps or
competitions, or to disclose or discuss activities during
these events.
British Swimming encourages the sport to be covered
by all media, present or not present. However, all media
should understand that priority has to be given to those
who are in attendance at the event. Efforts will be made to
meet all requests and British Swimming asks that protocol
be respected at all times.
There will be no access to athletes or coaching staff at the
team hotel. It is requested that this privacy be respected.
MISCELLANEOUS
Athletes can only talk about their own performance,
coaches can only comment on athletes in their own
specific group and not the overall team performance, the
National Performance Director can talk on the overall team
and all matters. Support staff are unable to comment on
perfrormance.
All media enquiries should be made to the Media Liaison.
If unavailable the media should approach the Team
Manager. The Media Liaison and Team Manager must both
be aware of all media activity.
If an athlete has achieved a notable result their specific
coach will also be encouraged to make themselves
available to the media at the end of the session. The Media
Liaison or Team Manager will be present during interviews.
The Media Liaison and Team Manager will always consider
special requests made by the media.
All media requests will be considered on their individual
merits and decisions made in the best interests of British
Swimming. Several requests for separate interviews at the
same time will be dealt with in order of deadlines. Media
with the tightest deadline will be dealt with first.

Newcomer’s guide
Newcomer’s guide to swimming
Swimmers often talk using their own
abbreviations and words that do not apply to
the outside world.
Below is a simple glossary of the most frequent
terms used:
PB: Personal Best time
Splits: This is the time at each 50m turn. Swimmers will
monitor these to see how they paced a race.
Taper: A swimmer will ‘taper’ prior to any major
competition. What this means is that they will rest. They
will cut back the amount of training they do each day and
decrease the intensity also. A swimmer may swim over 12,
000m a day during heavy training, however they will swim
as little as a few hundred metres the day before an event.
Free: Freestyle or front crawl.
Breast: Breaststroke.
Fly: Butterfly.
Back: Backstroke.
I.M: Individual Medley (Butterfly, Backstroke, Breaststroke,
Freestyle). In a medley relay, the order is changed so that
backstroke is first. This addresses the fact that backstrokers
cannot do a dive to start a race. Four swimmers compete
in one of the following strokes in the following order;
backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, freestyle.
www.swimming.org
Swim-down: A recovery exercise that takes place several
minutes after a swimmer completes their race.
They will swim at a low intensity in another pool in order to
rid the body of lactic acid, which would have accumulated
in the muscles after high-intensity swims.
Long Course: Long Course events are those held in a
50m pool.
Shaving-down: Most swimmers shave the hair from their
bodies for a big meet. Although they will remove almost
all of their body hair, the actual intention is to remove
the top layer of skin from the body. This increases the
sensitivity and “feel” for the water. Even though many
swimmers wear all-over body suits, shaving remains a key
psychological measure in getting prepared for a race.
The eight fastest swimmers from the heats will compete in
the final. The lane order for the finals is decided from times
in the heats or semi-finals. The fastest qualifier will swim
in lane 4, the second fastest in lane 5, third fastest in lane
3, fourth in lane 6, fifth in lane 2, sixth in lane 7, seventh
in lane 1 and eight in lane 8. Theoretically, this creates a
spearhead format in the race.
For the duration of the World Championships, the onestart rule will apply. Should any swimmer perform a false
start they will be disqualified from the race. Any swimmer
who is moving before the start will be disqualified at the
end of the race. The start should go ahead regardless of
the disqualification.

Beginner’s guide
to classification
Beginner’s guide to classification
Swimming is the only sport that combines
the conditions of limb loss, cerebral palsy
(coordination and movement restrictions), spinal
cord injury (weakness or paralysis involving any
combination of the limbs) and other disabilities,
such as Dwarfism; major joint restriction
condition across classes.
FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION SYSTE M
S1 SB1 SM1: Athletes in this class would usually be
wheelchair users and may have a higher dependency for
their every day needs. Examples: Athletes with very
severe coordination problems in all four limbs or have
no use of their legs, trunk, hands and minimal use of their
shoulders only.
Classes 1-10 are allocated to athletes with a physical
impairment.
Usually only swim on their back.
Classes 11-13 are allocated to athletes with a visual
impairment.
S2 SB1 SM2: Examples: The athlete is able to use their
arms with no use of their hands, legs or trunk or have
severe co-ordination problems in all four limbs.
The Prefix S to the Class denotes the class for Freestyle,
Backstroke and Butterfly.
The Prefix SB to the class denotes the class for
Breaststroke.
The Prefix SM to the class denotes the class for
Individual Medley.
The range is from the athletes with a more severe
impairment, S1, SB1, SM1, to those with a lesser
impairment, S10, SB9 and SM10.
In any one class some athletes may start with a dive or in
the water depending on their impairment. This is factored
in when classifying an athlete. The following examples are
only a guide - some conditions not mentioned here may
also fit the following classes.
www.swimming.org
S3 SB2 SM3: Examples: Athletes with reasonable arm
strokes but no use of their legs or trunk; athletes with
severe coordination problems in all four limbs and athletes
with severe limb loss to all four limbs.
S4 SB3 SM4: Examples: Athletes who use their arms and
have minimal weakness in their hands but have no use of
their trunk or legs; athletes with coordination problems
affecting all four limbs but predominantly in the legs;
athletes with limb loss to three limbs.
S6 SB5 SM6: Examples: Athletes with full use of their
arms and hands with some trunk control but no useful leg
muscles; athletes with coordination problems (usually these
athletes walk); athletes with major limb loss of two limbs;
Achondroplasia (dwarfism < 130cm for women and 137cm
for men).
S7 SB6 SM7: Examples: Athletes with full use of their
arms and trunk with some leg function; coordination or
weakness problems on the same side of the body; major
limb loss of two limbs.
S8 SB7 SM8: Examples: Athletes with full use of their arms
and trunk with some leg function; limb loss of two limbs;
athletes with the use of one arm.
S9 SB8 SM9: Unless there is an underlying medical
condition usually all of these athletes will start out of the
water. Examples: Athletes with severe weakness in one
leg only; athletes with very slight coordination problems;
athletes with one limb loss.
S5 SB4 SM5: Examples: Athletes with full use of their
arms and hands but no trunk or leg muscles; athletes with
moderate coordination problems.

Beginner’s guide
to classification
S10 SB9 SM10: Examples: Athletes with very minimal
weakness affecting the legs; athletes with restriction of hip
joint movement; athletes with both feet deformed; athletes
with minor limb loss of part of a limb.
S14 SB14 SM14 swimmers with a Learning Disability
Swimmers must have an IQ of 75 or less to meet
the criteria
VISUALLY IMPAIRED CLASSES
S11 SB11 SM11: These athletes are unable to see at all
and are considered totally blind. They must wear blackened
goggles if they swim in this class. They will also require
someone to tap them when they are approaching a wall
for turning and finishing.
S12 SB12 SM12: These athletes can recognise the shape
of a hand and have some ability to see. There is a large
range of vision ability within this class.
S13 SB13 SM13: Athletes who are the most sighted but
are legally considered to be blind.
