Why are the results of meet XY missing in the rankings ?
The national federations are responsable to send us the results of meets in their country. For more detailed information, please check the results guidelines document.
I found an error in the rankings. What should I do ?
First ensure with an official result list, that there is really an error in the ranking. Then send the error by email to swimresults@geologix.ch.
I sent an error but I don't see any changes in the pages ?
Normally we update the rankings once or twice a week, depending on the incoming results. So it may take up to a week, until your correction is done in the database and available on the website.
Why do some meet result lists look strange and incomplete ?
The different formats in which results are sent to us, are not all as complete as desirable. In these cases it is not possible to display correct places and/or age groups of the result lists.
Why are there only regional, club and age group rankings for certain federations ?
Basically detailed rankings are only available for federations, who entered an agreement with GeoLogix. For all other countries only an open national ranking with the results from the European rankings is available.
How are ages calculated in age group rankings ?
Age calculations for rankings are always based on year of birth. For season rankings the age is calculated based on the end of the season, for alltime rankings, the age is calculated based on the meets date.
What is a season on swimrankings.net ?
On European level, the season is 1 Jan - 31 Dec for long course and 1 Aug - 31 Jul for short course results. Example: Short course 2013 is 1 Aug 2012 - 31 Jul 2013.
For national rankings, seasons are defined the same way, except if there are detailed rankings for a nation. In this case, the seasons are set according to the definition of the national federation.
Why is there no individual result for the first leg of a mixed relay?
According to FINA and LEN rules, the first leg cannot be a valid individual result when it's a mixed relay.
