Safe thought for Qualifying Procedure (comparatively to Time Standards)
We acknowledge that with the Top 50 (18 + 32) list, arranging swimmers, travel, and hotel rooms will be difficult. In looking back on the past years of events, we RARELY have 50+ swimmers in events. This was when we were using qualifying times. As a guideline, if a swimmer achieves the old OFSAA qualifying times from 2019, they are very likely going to be in the Top 50 (18 + 32) and will be attending.
Open Swimmer Appeals
