Although the location of the event is not yet determined, the qualification times needed to race at the 8-day affair have been published. Swimming Australia says it will ‘continually reassess qualifying times for National Events due to the evolving COVID-19 situation to ensure that swimmers (from affected areas) are not disadvantaged in qualifying.’
