announced our final team (we snuck in a few relay-only swimmers ) for Paris, there will be a total of 17 swimmers (14 men and 3 women), which is our largest swimming team since Beijing 2008 where we had 18
Back then also it was easier to qualify and there were more quotas available, so really this is so good for us. We went from 18 in Beijing, to 14 in each of London and Rio, then 12 in Tokyo and now back up to 17. Often we complain about various sport federations so I want to give some credit to our aquatics federation and the swimming coaches for doing such a great job, hopefully we can continue this trend
I'm not sure why we have so few women in swimming, it didn't used to be that way but I wonder if a lot of the girls are choosing artistic swimming so we are 'losing' them to that sport...
