Not an Olympic qualification event unfortunately. Could be added later though.

Yeah I gave up looking through the World Aquatics site looking for the calendar so figured I'd post it anyhow as it feels like it's been a while since GB had anybody new hitting an OQT.

 

Now all she needs to do is repeat it at next week's Edinburgh International meet for it to count for World Aquatics and then again in April at British Champs for it to count for British Swimming! What could be simpler? :lol:

Just needs to do it once at British Champs.

Here's the calendar on the World Aquatics site

 

and here's the Totallympics version that I've been updating

 

Yeah, definitely not a fan of your federation's harsh standards. If Amelie Blocksidge hits the OQT but misses the BQT and they don't take her, I might just bring my pitchfork to British Swimming's headquarters. :redcard:

If they're not likely to reach the final then they don't wanna know, simple as. Although tbf to them, unlike athletics, this hasn't hindered the progress or success of our athletes at all so they've got no reason to stop doing this. Edinburgh will be a good guide, in all unqualified events, as to how trials will most likely unfold. Blocksidge needs to knock 9 seconds off her current time and Evans 0.3 to reach the British Standard, and that's without even considering the 30 athlete cap they might have to contend with.

The wording is a bit awkward.

 

It's written that athletes under the age of 30 can only compete in two Olympics through universality. It's then implied that over 30 year old athletes can compete in more Olympics.

 

It's a dumb rule in my opinion and hurts a small handful of athletes in their mid to late 20s who may be excluded during what may have been their peak Olympics

But perhaps wouldn't be the case of those countries read the OQD beforehand and send new athletes?

 

I like the idea of Universality quotas not being given to the same athlete over and over.

Not sure if this would be thread or the Swimming 2024, but... I was curious and took the 2 best times from american swimmers between march 2023-24 to check what would be the US swimming "selection".

It would have 20 male athletes, 18 female athletes, plus 3 men and 2 women to fill the top6 in 4x100m and 4x200m. The 12th relay only quota would go (in my mind obviously) to Simone Manuel, 7th from 4x100m.

 

Do you think the official selection will be very different from this one? Can Dressel comeback in time?

 

MEN (20+ 6 relay only)

 

Bobby Finke - 800m freestyle, 1500m freestyle

Carson Foster - 200m butterfly, 200m medley, 400m medley, 4x200m freestyle (3rd)

Charlie Clark - 1500m freestyle

Chase Kalisz - 400m medley

Dare Rose - 100m butterfly

David Johnston - 400m freestyle

Destin Lasco.- 200m backstroke, 4x100 freestyle (3rd)

Hunter Armstrong - 100m backstroke

Jack Alexy - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Jake Foster - 200m breaststroke

Josh Mateny - 100m breaststroke

Kieran Smith - 200m freestyle, 400m freestyle

Luke Hobson - 200m freestyle

Matt Fallon - 200m breaststroke

Nic Fink - 100m breaststroke

Ross Dant - 800m freestyle

Ryan Held - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Ryan Murphy - 100m backstroke, 200m backstroke

Shaine Casas - 100m butterfly, 200m medley

Thomas Heilman - 200m butterfly

 

RELAY ONLY

 

Brooks Curry - 4x200m freestyle (6th)

Chris Giuliano - 4x100 freestyle (5th)

Drew Kibler - 4x200m freestyle (4th)

Jake Mitchell - 4x200m freestyle (5th)

Justin Ress- 4x100 freestyle (6th)

Matt King - 4x100 freestyle (4th)

 

 

WOMEN (22) 16+6 relay only

 

Abbey Weitzeil - 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle

Alex Walsh - 200m medley, 400m medley

Bella Sims - 400 free, 4x200m freestyle (3rd)

Claire Curzan - 200m back

Claire Weinstein - 200m freestyle

British swimming will take Amelie if she wins trials and gets vaguely close to that insane qualification time of 16m 01 IMHO.

What an experience Paris will be for her in her development, she is probably British swimmings biggest talent for a long time. I’m also interested in seeing if she can drop time in the 800m to get close to that QT.

 

As others have mentioned, UK swimming setting a cap of 30 swimmers looks like it MAY cause them problems as a few of the non headline swimmers are making strides in various events.

World Aquatics seems to imply the opposite in their website so it almost seems like they can compete in more than 2 Olympics if they are under the age of 30.


Screen Shot 2024-02-21 at 21.31.33.png

In the official document the wording is more clear but not enough

I think it is something similar to the tennis rule that have different rules to younger/older than 30:

 

In this case... I think the rule only applies if the athlete is younger than 30.

 

if the athlete is over 30 he/she can go.

But if he/she is younger, can not go to a third Olympic.

 

I guess the idea behind is: if the athlete is older, it gets an "extra" Olympic to go to.

Not sure if it's the best or if it's what the document says. what do you think @JoshMartini007 @OlympicIRL @Josh?

    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
    • Dunno if this is geoblocked, but this is from our weekly comedy show Saturday Night Live  
    • I don't buy that she's doing this just to start the race if she thinks she won't be competitive.  We'll probably know more after the training run and far be it from me to know how that's going to work with a torn ACL, but if she knows she can't do it, she'll give that spot to another skier
    • And this with relatively small fields, so lots of nations with no skin in the game.
