SM3
Individual medley
Classcope explanation
Individual medley class calculated from the swimmer's S and SB classes. The August 2022 rulebook specifies two formulas depending on the S class and rounds the result to a whole Sport Class.
Official Sport Class rule
Individual medley Sport Class allocation will be calculated based on the Athlete's Sport Class for the S-stroke and the SB-stroke. The calculation is rounded to a whole number. For example, a calculation resulting in 6.5 will be rounded up to Sport Class SM7.
If the Athlete is allocated a S5 Sport Class or higher (i.e S6), the allocation of the individual medley Sport Class (SM) will be calculated as follows;
3 x S class + 1 x SB class = SM Sport Class 4
If the Athlete is allocated a S4 Sport Class or lower, the allocation of the individual medley Sport Class (SM) will be calculated as follows;
2 x S class + 1 x SB class = SM Sport Class 3
