    Summary: We give two equivalent conditions of the \(P\)-polynomial property of a symmetric association scheme. The first equivalent condition shows that the \(P\)-polynomial property is determined only by the first and second eigenmatrices of the symmetric association scheme. The second equivalent condition is another expression of the first using predistance polynomials.
