MAIN FEATURE
Three week wonders – Disability swimming
The Visa Paralympic World Cup is an invitation-only showcase event that pulls in some of the finest disabled swimmers from around the world.  It is raced over a limited part of the programme with the sponsors aiming to provide exciting race after exciting race.  With every seat in the Manchester Aquatics Centre full, the crowd were not disappointed.                    

The multi-disability (MD) events started and concluded the swimming programme – male and female 100m freestyle at the front end and 50m freestyle at the back end.  Even to the educated audience, it is a difficult spectacle to understand, although the advent of a points system similar to that used in decathlon has made it easier to quickly decipher who has won.  The points are calculated on the time posted in relation to the world record, with 1000 points equalling the record and a new record obviously worth more than 1000 points.
