British Swimming Championships 2024


Recommended Posts

This is my current take on the team with 2 days left.

 

Currently Qualified

1. Keanna Macinnes (200m Fly)

2. Freya Colbert (200m Free + Relay + 400m IM)

3. Abbie Wood (200m Free + Relay)

4. Medi Harris (200m Free Relay)

5. Lucy Hope (200m Free Relay)

6.Adam Peaty (100m Breast + Medley Relay)

7. Oliver Morgan (100m Back + Medley Relay)

8. Kathleen Dawson (100m Back)

9. Dan Jervis (1500m Free)

10. Anna Hopkin (50m Free)

11. Max Litchfield (400m IM)

12. Matt Richards (100m Free + Relay)

13. Duncan Scott (100m Free + Relay + 200m IM)

14. Tom Dean (100m Free Relay)

15. Alex Cohoon (100m Free Relay)

16. Joe Litchfield (Medley Relay)

17. Honey Osrin (200m Back)

 

Likely Qualifiers from the rest of the meet

18. Ben Proud (50m Free)

19. Luke Greenbank (200m Back)

20. Angharad Evans (100m Breast)

 

2nd Place finishers with consideration Times

21. Laura Stephens (200m Fly)

22. Jonathan Marshall (100m Back)

23. Katie Shanahan (400m IM + 200m Back)

 

Likely 2nd Place finishers

24. Kara Hanlon (100m Breast)

 

Likely Relay members

25. James Guy (200m Free relay)

 

 

This leaves us with 5 slots to fill with discretionary swimmers, although I'm sure I may have missed someone further up. Currently, I would pick.

26. Freya Anderson

27. Jacob Whittle

28. Jacob Peters

29. James Wilby

30. Lauren Cox

 

Have I missed anyone? Obviously shocks happen but this is the team I would currently take.

So if that was the final team, who would be the 4x100 relay? Hopkin/Hope/Wood/Anderson? There's not a lot of relay cover there for the women.

Medi Harris has swum the 4x1 at the Worlds before (2022). She's the obvious backup in those 30.

 

Last year they used the 4 you mention in both heat/final. As they did in Tokyo.

Medi could cover, and Freya Colbert is also entered into to 100m free. 

Although you are right, depending on how Eva Okaro swims in the 100m she could definately take Laurens spot on the team.

 

The point of this is to show that there is still room on the team to get both James Guy and Jacob Peters on the train despite performing poorly tonight.

With Colbert, I'd guess they will want to prioritise the mixed medley relay and the 4x200. 

 

I do think Cox is vulnerable - with Medi Harris on the team already, she could also be entered into the 100 back given she has the OQT from last year.

I think they might think that makes a mockery of the trials if someone can use a time from elsewhere.

I really can't understand the support for taking Peters AND Guy, unless Jimmy qualifies individually in the 200m free.

 

I'd rather use Jacob's spot and give that to either Bird or Blocksidge. One has the obvious huge upside of getting better as they age.

 

The other outperformed expectations at trials. There should be some reward for doing that, at least for me.

 

Obviously, Aquatics GB probably won't see it like that.

Considering Medi's situation it would hardly be crazy. Most people were surprised that she even took part in these champs at all.

This is where the limit is unfair and just plan cruel.

True. Through with the relay focus I’m not sure any relay swimmer will do individuals unless they fairly confident they will make the final. Harris can make the final but not s certainty she does.

    • With a week to go till the deadline for the world invitational,the rosters look beefy for the discus on both sides.24 entries for the men[19 accepted in so far] and 25 for the women[18 accepted so far] For the men so far there are three 70 meter throwers[i count Denny as that since it's just 4 centimeters off his pb]10 from mid 66 to low 69,three of 65 and over,four from almost 64 to almost 65.On the women's side the 18 accepted throwers all have a pb of over 60 meters.11 of them have  pbs over 64 plus.of the ones still not there besides Valerie and Yaime who have been marketed so i can only assume they will join,such names as  Sandra Elkasevic,Bin Feng,and jordine van klinken aren't signed up yet,jordine's probably the most likely of them to join in tough feng would be a cool surprise,i somehow don't see Sandra doing this,but it would be awesome if she did.Stahl and ceh aren't in yet on the men's side,ceh has been marketed while stahl hasn't been mentioned at all,[pretty sure stahl will not be there],Lukas[last name is too wild for me to even try] and lawrence okoye aren't there yet either but i'm betting both will be joining in.
    • What a shame. That would have been amazing.
    • It's complete American domination in the women's discus rankings so far this year,they occupy the top 4 slots,and the WORST result of those four was achieved at Ramona .Third place currently belongs to Ciera Jackson who had a huge almost 4 METER pr at the west coast relays on friday-64.42[previous best was 60.77 from march of 2023,and she opened her season a week ago with at that time her second best result ever of 60.14]she also had a 63.66 throw to back this new pb up,and finally with her new personal best she took down the school record that stood for 36 YEARS[Btw Valerie Allman actually competed in Ramona on march 30th but conditions were apparently far from ideal and she fouled four times and her best was a 63.61,i don't doubt that in the event that she competes in the  world intational,the conditions will be perfect,i wouldn't be so bold as to say she wouldl get the world record but for sure i think she could get a new personal best.
