Selection Criteria:

Individual Events

SSA shall recommend the top TWO qualifiers for each individual event, based on the following:

: Category A – Qualifying Time, based on the SIXTH-placing time at the previous Commonwealth Games (17th Commonwealth Games 2002 in Manchester, England, UK)

: In the event where the SIXTH-placing time at the previous Commonwealth Games (17th Commonwealth Games 2002 in Manchester, England, UK) is slower than the THIRD-placing time at the most recent South-East Asian Games (22nd SEA Games 2003 in Hanoi, Vietnam), the SEA Games time shall apply

Team Events

: Freestyle Relays – the TOP FOUR fastest swims in the 100m Freestyle and 200m Freestyle shall be considered, provided their aggregate time beats the SIXTH-placing time at the previous Commonwealth Games (17th Commonwealth Games 2002 in Manchester, England, UK) for the 4x100m and 4x200m Freestyle Relays respectively

: Medley Relays – the TOP or fastest swimmer in 100m Backstroke, 100m Breaststroke, 100m Butterfly, and 100m Freestyle shall be considered, provided their aggregate time beats the SIXTH-placing time at the previous Commonwealth Games (17th Commonwealth Games 2002 in Manchester, England, UK) for the 4x100m Medley Relay.  If a swimmer is top in more than one event, subject to the above, SSA shall have the sole and unfetted discretion to appoint such swimmer to swim a stroke of his qualification and appoint the next fastest swimmer for the stroke(s) that the former also qualified for.  The International Point Score (IPS) system may be used as a guide

: In the event where the SIXTH-placing time at the previous Commonwealth Games (17th Commonwealth Games 2002 in Manchester, England, UK) is slower than the THIRD-placing time at the most recent South-East Asian Games (22nd SEA Games 2003 in Hanoi, Vietnam), the SEA Games time shall apply

Qualifying Window:

In view of the close timeframe between the 23rd South-East Asian Games 2005 (2005-SEAG) in December 2005 and this competition, SSA will use the performances from the 2005-SEAG Qualifying Window as well the 2005-SEAG toward final recommendations.

Qualifying Meets:

Any Long-Course Metres (LCM) swimming meet that is recognised by FINA or an affiliated National Federation.  For performances to be recognised, swimmers are required to notify the SSA Secretariat prior to their participation in meets not reflected in the SSA Calendar.

Additional Considerations:

: Only Singapore Citizens are eligible.

: SSA will also take into consideration the following factors:

- Strategic Attributes – Team (strength, depth and needs) and financial considerations

- Swimmers’ Attributes – High Performance status and commitment toward preparation

: SSA shall identify a shortlist of swimmers for recommendation to the Singapore National Olympic Council (SNOC).  Shortlisted swimmers shall be eligible for Preparatory Meets and centralised training sessions, in the run up to the Commonwealth Games proper.  The final authority for the selection of Singapore’s Commonwealth Games Contingent rests with the SNOC.
