Asked in Swimming Events
What are two types of starts done on the starting block?
one possible (most used) start is the "track start" in which you
place your feet shoulder width apart and your toes about at the
center of your lead foot (lead foot should be dominant). the other
is the front end start in which both feet are at the front of the
block and you place your hands on the outside of your feet, while
if done correctly both starts are good the track start is supposed
to be faster while the front end gets you farther. if done
correctly (and with a strong base) the front end start can be
faster than the average start as well

Asked in Swimming Events
How do you score a multi team swim meet?
It depends on the type of meet.-
At a high school swim meet, a single team will get a number of
different scores, a different one against each other team that is
there. It is scored as though there were only two teams. For
example- team A gets first in an event, B gets second, and C gets
third. In the meet between teams B and C, B will get the points for
first and B will get the points for second because team A doesn't
exist at their dual meet. In the end, team A could could win
against team B and lose to team C, but they will get first out of
two and second out of two, not second out of three.
Club swim meets are a bit easier- If team A gets first in an
event, B gets second, and C gets third, A gets points for first, B
gets points for second, and C gets points for third, so it would be
second out of three, not first out of two and second out of
two.
