The point of this research is the analysis of changes in efficiency of the young swimmers in the four-month 2017 winter macrocycle and the comparison of their best performances with the special standards for sports classes and sports high-schools. Research group consisted of 17 swimmers in age of 12 to 18. We have used four standardized tests for swimming skills, concrete - 3× 25 m, 4× 50 m Freestyle, 200 m Individual Medley and 400 m Freestyle, according to Ružbarský et al. (2003). In this comparison of individual performances of the swimmers with the special standards for sports classes and sports high-schools we have concluded, that in the tests 3× 25 m and 4× 50 m Freestyle, the major part of the observed group fulfilled the performance standard. On the other hand, in the test on 200 m Individual Medley and 400 m Freestyle was successful only one swimmer in each test.
