SWOLF Score Calculator

Welcome to the SWOLF Score Calculator. This tool is designed for swimmers who want to assess their swimming efficiency—combining stroke count with time to swim a set distance.

Calculate Your SWOLF Score

Enter the number of strokes and time taken to swim a specific distance. The SWOLF score is calculated by adding the number of strokes to the time in seconds.

Results

Your SWOLF score will appear here.

Data Source and Methodology

All calculations are based rigorously on swimming metrics used globally to assess swimmer efficiency. The SWOLF score combines stroke count and time to evaluate your swimming performance. Learn more here.

All calculations are based strictly on the formulas and data provided by this source.

The Formula Explained

The SWOLF score is calculated using the formula: SWOLF = Strokes + Time (in seconds)

Glossary of Terms

How It Works: A Practical Example

For example, if you swim a 50-meter pool in 30 strokes and it takes you 45 seconds, your SWOLF score would be 75 (30 strokes + 45 seconds).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a good SWOLF score?

A good SWOLF score varies by swimmer ability and distance, but lower scores generally indicate better efficiency.

How can I improve my SWOLF score?

Focus on improving your stroke technique and reducing your time while swimming the same distance.

Is a lower SWOLF score always better?

Typically, yes. A lower SWOLF score suggests more efficient swimming, but it should be considered alongside other performance metrics.

Does SWOLF take into account swimmer fatigue?

No, SWOLF is purely a measure of efficiency based on stroke count and time; it does not consider fatigue.

Can SWOLF be used for different swimming strokes?

Yes, SWOLF can be applied to any swimming stroke, but comparisons should be made within the same stroke type.
