TOP RESPECTIVE TEAM SIZE LISTS
The American Swimming Coaches Association has announced the 2025 Top 50 Age Group Teams for
large, medium and small size teams. Working collaboratively with USA Swimming, who provided the
data, ASCA updated the criteria to recognize more teams and more coaches who are doing a great job in
age group development.
This year, the recognition is based on athletes ages 10-14, and all clubs were ranked using both the total
number of athletes achieving AAA and AAAA+, as well the percentage of athletes achieving AAA &
AAAA+ time standards relative to their club size. The dataset was provided via SWIMS by USA Swimming
and stays consistent with their definition of a large team (401+ swimmers), medium team (200 – 400
swimmers), and small teams (less than 199 swimmers). Time standards were weighted using data
provided by the USA Swimming Data Science team.
