The 2024 Olympic Games in Paris are fast approaching, which means it’s time for the Olympic Trials.
Over the course of a week, the swimmers competing for the Canadian Olympic Swimming Team will be finalized as the 2024 Olympic Swimming Trials take place May 13-19 in Toronto at the Toronto Pan American Sports Centre.
At the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Swimming Canada won six medals in total, all in the women’s events. Margaret Mac Neil was the only gold medalist, winning the 100m butterfly. Kylie Masse won silver in the 100m and 200m backstroke, and Penny Oleksiak won bronze in the 200m freestyle to round out the individual events. In the relays, Canada won silver in the 4 x 100m freestyle relay and bronze in the 4 x 100m medley relay.

Olympic Swimming Trials Rules to Know
When it comes to the Olympic Swimming Trials, it’s pretty simple: a swimmer who finishes in the top two in their respective race, with a time below the Olympic Qualifying Time (OQT), makes the Olympic team.
If a swimmer places in the top two in their event at Trials with a time that does not meet the TQO, that swimmer may still qualify for the team if they have already achieved the necessary time during the qualification period.
In the 100 and 200 freestyle, the top four will also qualify. This is for relay purposes. Winners of the 100m medley events may be added to the 400m medley relay team if they are not already qualified.
Additionally, Swimming Canada may make any necessary additions at its own discretion for relays.
