MULTI-CLASS EVENTS Swimming 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 Physical and Intellectual disabilities into a multi-disabled competition format. Within each classification, classes are allocated depending on the severity of the disability (the lower the number the more severe the disability). Classes 1-10 are allocated to swimmers with a Physical Disability. Classes 11-13 are allocated to swimmers with a Visual Disability. Class 14 is allocated to swimmers with an Intellectual Disability. Class 15 is allocated to swimmers with a Hearing Impairment. Class 16 is allocated to swimmers with an Organ or Bone Transplant. Each class is also allocated a prefix that denotes which stroke the individual is swimming. S denotes – Freestyle, Backstroke and Butterfly. SB denotes – Breaststroke. SM denotes – Individual Medley. Competitors compete in a Multi-Class format where each swimmer competes against a recognised Australian Standard Time for his or her disability classification and class. For this reason the swimmer who finishes first in the race may not be the actual winner, as individual times are compared and calculated against their relative Australian Standard Time. COMPETING ASSOCIATIONS Combined High Schools (CHS) Combined Catholic Colleges (CCC) Combined Independent Schools (CIS). The NSW All Schools Swimming Championships was first held in 1990. The idea to bring together the best swimmers from all NSW School Sporting Associations was that of Jan Smith, PDHPE & Sport Co-ordinator at SCECGS Redlands (now Redlands). As a result of the idea and work of Jan Smith, together with members of the Catholic Girls Secondary Schools Sports Association (CGSSSA), the success of the carnival in 1990 ensured its establishment as an annual event.
