PB set. The first time for an event becomes the time to beat, and every later swim is compared with it automatically.
1.40s from the County qualifying time. Where target data is available, the closest gap appears straight away, even on Free.
Targets use available published times as planning context, not an official guarantee. Check official meet conditions before entering.

Reports
Season summaries with events improved, biggest PB drop and target context. Private and print-ready.
Plain-English summaries
Explanations are based on entered data and do not replace advice from a qualified coach.
Standards Pathway shows selected qualifying-time context where source data exists. Coverage varies by county, region, season and course. Check official meet information before entering.
How it works
Start simple, then build a progress record that becomes more useful after each meet.
Start with a private workspace focused on your swimmer's progress.
Start manually with one swimmer, or use Pro for multi-swimmer tracking.
Add one result or several races from the same meet. Pro adds Smart Result Entry to structure plain-English notes for review.
See PB history, progress charts, Standards Pathway context, Daily Check-in trends and reports as data builds.
Privacy first
Swimmer profiles stay inside the private account. PB Pathway avoids social features, public swimmer profiles and pressure-led leaderboard language.
No public swimmer profiles
Nothing about your swimmer is published. There is no public page for anyone to find.
No public leaderboards
PB Pathway never ranks children against each other, inside a club or across one.
No social feed
No comments, no direct messages, no follower counts. It is a record, not a network.
You choose what a coach sees
A coach reaches your swimmer only after you approve it, and you can withdraw that whenever you like.
The other half of PB Pathway
Race analysis, workouts, competitions and season planning for UK competitive clubs. A coach reaches a swimmer only after the person managing that account approves it, and video for race analysis never leaves the coach's own device.

Built by swimmers and coaches

Common questions
No. PB Pathway is designed for private swim progress tracking, not public swimmer profiles or public leaderboards.
Qualifying times come from reviewed source documents or admin imports where PB Pathway has added suitable standards data.
Free lets users start with one swimmer, manual result entry, PB tracking, recent progress and one closest-target preview where data is available.
