USA Swimming Time Standards

Time Standards are used to place swimmers in terms of how fast they swim. US Swimming Motivational Times are classified into five groups: B, BB, A, AA, AAA, and AAAA, a.k.a. AB Times, also differentiated by pool sizes: SCY, SCM, and LCM. But National Championships, Zone meets, and other swimming meets have their Time Standards (i.e., qualifying times or time cuts), which are not using AB Times.
