What Are the ORCA Awards?

The ORCA Awards, presented by ISCA, recognize outstanding athletes, coaches, clubs, and contributors who help grow the sport of swimming. One of the featured honors is the Age Group Swimmer of the Year, which recognizes exceptional performances and achievements by age group swimmers throughout the calendar year.

Swim Standards is proud to support the ORCA Awards by providing data analysis and independent rankings to help identify top candidates in each age group.

The ORCA rankings published by Swim Standards are unofficial and are based solely on meet results available in the Swim Standards database. While we strive to provide complete and accurate data, some meet results may not yet be available or may be corrected after publication. The official ORCA Award finalists and winners are selected by ISCA.

Calendar Year, Not Swim Season

The ORCA Awards are based on the calendar year (January 1 – December 31), not the USA Swimming season.

For example, the 2026 awards include swims achieved between January 1, 2026, and December 31, 2026.

Age Groups

Each swimmer is evaluated in one of the following age categories:

• 9 & Under
• 10
• 11
• 12
• 13
• 14
• 15–16
• 17–18 (Senior)

Swimmers are ranked separately within each age category. When a swimmer ages up during the calendar year, they retain eligibility for their previous age and then gain eligibility for the next age group. This means that a high majority of swimmers will have dual eligibility in two different ages each calendar year (often referred to as upper and lower eligibility).

Rankings for the older age group are based primarily on swims achieved after aging up. However, if a swimmer did not have an opportunity to compete in a particular eligible event after their birthday, their best time from the previous age group may be carried forward for that event. This helps ensure swimmers are not disadvantaged simply because of the timing of their birthdate.

This carry-forward applies only when moving to an older age group. Times achieved after aging up are never counted toward the younger age group’s rankings.

How the Scoring Works

The rankings are based on each swimmer’s best time in every eligible event with USA Swimming Motivational Standards during the calendar year.

Within each age group, gender, course (both SCY and LCM), and eligible events, a swimmer receives points based on their placement on the nation leaderboards. The higher the ranking, the more points received. Bonus points are awarded for any National Age Group Records held at the end of the calendar year.

At the conclusion of the calendar year, an annual TOP 10 Leaderboard will be published for both genders and for each age category. The TOP 10 will then be rescored within their leaderboard so that 5 FINALISTS are named for every category. These 5 finalists will be submitted to an established voting committee where each AGE GROUP SWIMMER OF THE YEAR will be announced at the annual ORCA Awards in April.

More Than Just Speed

The point rankings are designed to identify the leading candidates, but they do not determine the ORCA Award winners by themselves.

After the preliminary finalists are identified, ISCA also considers accomplishments such as:

• State Championship titles
• Senior State Championship titles
• Open Water achievements
• Zones results
• Junior or National Team selections
• Other notable accomplishments throughout the year

These achievements help distinguish the final winners from the top-ranked candidates.

Quarterly Rankings

Beginning in 2026, Swim Standards publishes quarterly ORCA leaderboards throughout the year, allowing swimmers, families, and coaches to follow the race for the ORCA Awards as the season progresses.

Current schedule:

• Q1: January 1 – March 31 (Published)
• Q2: April 1 – June 30
• Q3: July 1 – September 30
• Q4: October 1 – December 31

These quarterly leaderboards recognize the top-performing swimmers at each checkpoint of the year. The annual January–December rankings will be used to help identify the finalists for the ORCA Age Group Swimmer of the Year Awards.

Annual Final Rankings

At the end of the calendar year, Swim Standards will publish the complete January–December rankings.

Our goal is to provide a transparent and objective scoring system that recognizes outstanding age group performances while supporting the ORCA Awards selection process.

Disclaimer

The ORCA rankings published by Swim Standards are unofficial and are intended for informational purposes only. They are calculated using the scoring methodology described above and are based solely on meet results available in the Swim Standards database at the time of publication.

Because additional meet results or corrections may become available, rankings may change over time. The official ORCA Award finalists and winners are selected by ISCA using its complete review process, which includes both performance data and non-scoring criteria.

I did a quick check, and it looks like those are high school meet results.

SwimSnap works by recognizing patterns in the text that is pasted into it. Because of that, it isn’t very reliable when the format of the results is different from what it expects. In this case, the high school meet results use a different format than the USA Swimming club results we originally built and tested it for.

SwimSnap was released as a prototype last year and hasn’t seen much usage, so it hasn’t been a priority for us to improve.

I think the better long-term approach is to use AI to understand and extract the data, rather than relying on fixed text patterns. That would make it much more reliable across different result formats.

Thank you for testing it out.

Thank you for reporting the issues. I will look into this later today.

@Shiny_Walrus408 Thank you for reporting this. The issue with the Granite Peaks Conference championships has been fixed. The boys and girls meets are now separated correctly.

@Shiny_Walrus408 Thank you for the explanation. Your club name has been corrected to CAC Boulder Riptide

Thanks for flagging this.

We pulled results from multiple sources, which caused some naming issues and duplicate swimmers. We can fix both.

I see CAC already listed:
https://swimstandards.com/clubs/co/colorado-athletic-club

Can you confirm if CAC Riptide is the same club or different?

For duplicate swimmers, please email the list (names/links) to support@swimstandards.com.

Thanks,

Previously, this feature was shown as Club Swimmers. We have renamed the component to Club Roster and updated the ranking formula, so this post explains the current roster-ranking method.

Our goal is to rank swimmers using a more complete view of performance, with an emphasis on power points, depth across events, and strength of standards achieved.

What data is used

Club roster rankings are based on swims from the selected season.

We look at swimmers who have at least one USA Swimming motivational standard at the B level or higher during the selected season. For roster ranking, scoring is deduplicated by event, so each event counts only once per swimmer and only that swimmer’s best power-point score for the event is used. Age group and course do not create separate scoring events, which means versions such as 50 Freestyle SCY and 50 Freestyle LCM are treated as the same event for roster scoring.

How swimmers are ranked

Swimmers are ranked by Score, then tie-breakers:

• Score = top 5 power points total
• Tie-breaker 1 = best power point
• Tie-breaker 2 = stronger standards profile
• Final tie-breakers = performance score and total qualified events

What “stronger standards profile” means

If two swimmers have the same Score and best power point, we compare the strength of their standards profile.

A swimmer with more AAAA swims ranks ahead of one with fewer AAAA swims. If that is still tied, we compare AAA swims, then AA, then A, then BB, then B.

This helps reward not just one standout swim, but the overall quality of a swimmer’s event lineup.

Performance Score

As an additional tie-breaker, we calculate a Performance Score:

• AAAA × 7
• AAA × 6
• AA × 5
• A × 4
• BB × 3
• B × 2

This gives extra weight to swimmers who consistently perform at higher standards across multiple events.

Why we changed the method

Our previous club ranking approach relied more heavily on club size and on counting how many events a swimmer achieved within a selected standards range. The new method is more consistent across teams and does a better job highlighting swimmers with stronger overall performance quality.

What you see on club pages

On club roster pages, swimmers are shown in rank order based on this formula. Each swimmer row may include:

• total qualified events
• standards breakdown
• Score
• best power point

This makes it easier to understand both rank and the performance behind it.

Open to improvement

As always, we are open to feedback. Ranking swimmers is not a perfect science, and there are different ways to value depth, versatility, and peak performance. We will continue refining the experience as we learn from swimmers, parents, and coaches.

You can explore club rosters by visiting: https://swimstandards.com/clubs

Note: Viewing the full club roster is available to registered users only. Visitors who are not logged in can see the top 25 swimmers, and a free Swim Standards account is required to unlock the complete roster.

USA Swimming is expanding recognition of stroke 50s (50 Fly, 50 Back, 50 Breast) for 15–18 swimmers, following the addition of these events to the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games program.

Previously, these events were only formally recognized through the 13–14 age group. With renewed national focus, USA Swimming has confirmed that National Age Group (NAG) Records will now also be tracked for:

• 15–16
• 17–18

What’s updated on Swim Standards

We’ve fully implemented support for these events across the platform:

• Added 50 Fly, 50 Back, 50 Breast for 15–16 and 17–18
• Integrated 2024–2028 USA Swimming time standards
• Created NAG record support across SCY, SCM, and LCM
• Enabled season-aware rankings validation (25–26 and beyond)
• Backfilled historical swims that previously showed “NA” standards
• Updated rankings data across all LSCs and stroke collections
• Improved mobile display (invalid/sentinel points now show as N/A)

Result

These events are now:

• Fully recognized in rankings
• Properly scored with standards
• Historically consistent (no more missing standards for past swims)

We’ll continue tracking updates as USA Swimming evolves event recognition and record policies leading into 2028.

@merry_tang360 is it this one? https://swimstandards.com/meets/2026-ca-rmdascs-14-under-spring-age-group-championships-0312

@merry_tang360
Thank you for reaching out. It looks like there is a delay, as the results have not yet been posted on the SCS website. We will add them as soon as they become available.

We’ve updated the Specialty section on swimmer profiles and dashboards to give a more balanced view of event strengths across strokes and race types.

How Specialty (v2) works

This profile uses power points from your best event/course entries.

Examples:

• 100 Fly SCY
• 200 Fly LCM

We normalize the display to a fixed ceiling:

• 1200 points = 100%
• Example: 820 points = about 68.3%

Stroke Radar

The stroke radar uses a weighted average of your top 3 entries in each stroke:

• Top 1 = 1.0x
• Top 2 = 0.75x
• Top 3 = 0.5x

This helps reduce noise from one single standout swim and gives a more stable picture of overall specialty.

Sprint / Mid / Distance

We also show a Sprint / Mid / Distance profile using the same weighted method.

Buckets:

• Sprint: 50 / 100
• Mid: 200 / 400 / 500
• Distance: 1000+

Data Confidence

On the radar tooltip, n means the number of valid event/course entries counted for that stroke before top-3 weighting.

If a swimmer has fewer than 5 total entries, we show a Limited Data badge to indicate the profile may shift quickly as more results are added.

Why we changed it

The goal of Specialty (v2) is to make the profile:

• more stable
• less dependent on one swim
• easier to compare across strokes
• more useful for swimmers, parents, and coaches

If you have feedback on the new Specialty profile, reply in this thread.

We just rolled out a dashboard update to make it easier for swim families to track progress throughout the season.

Could you share the swimmer’s team and LSC? You can DM me if you prefer.

SWIMS does not publish 25 Yard times in its data feed, so if the meet was synced from SWIMS, those times won’t come through automatically. In those cases, we can try sourcing the results from a different file if available.

Once I have the team/LSC or meet name, I’ll take a closer look.
