The new distance swimming badges are printed and supplied by the British Swimming Teachers Association, with eighteen designs ranging from 5 meters to 5000 meters. Three more lively and fun designs are also available: a seal badge, an octopus badge, and an effort badge. Some certificates have already been updated, while others will be replaced gradually. Each certificate, including the badge, is priced at $50 per set. A "Distance to Write" certificate is also available, allowing you to fill in only the distance you swim, offering flexibility. This certificate does not include a badge and is priced at $50.
