Priority 1 – Individual Pool Event Selection 1:
All eligible Swimmers who medalled in an Olympic event at the 2013 FINA World Championship and who place
in the top 3 in the same event at the Selection Trials shall be selected.
Priority 2 – Individual Pool Event Selection 2:
All Swimmers achieving or bettering the “Top 16” time at the Selection Trials shall be ranked
against the 2013 World Rankings and selected in rank order to a maximum of 3 per event and;
- a total of 10 Swimmers per gender (Pan Pacific Championships)
- to a total of 14 Swimmers including Priority 1 Swimmers and regardless of gender (Commonwealth Games)
Women
- Victoria Poon (100 freestyle)
- Tera van Beilen (200 breaststroke)
- Erika Seltenreich-Hodgson (400 IM)
- Emily Overholt (400 IM)
- Brittany MacLean (200 freestyle)
- Sinead Russell (100 backstroke)
- Brooklyn Snodgrass (100 backstroke)
- Hilary Caldwell (100 backstroke)
- Martha McCabe (200 breaststroke)
- Kierra Smith (200 breaststroke)
Men

Priority 3 – Free Relay Event Selection 1:
The top 4 Swimmers from both the 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle shall be selected if the combined ‘add-up’
of individual times achieved at the Selection Trials, less a relay takeover factor of 1.8 seconds, equals or
betters the “Top 8”relay standard.
- Sam Cheverton (4 x 200 free)
- Alyson Ackman (4 x 100 and 4 x 200 free)
- Barbara Jardin (4 x 200 free) – Jardin and Emily Overholt tied for fourth place in the 200 free
- Sandrine Mainville (4 x 100 free)
- Michelle Williams (4 x 100 free)
Barbera Jardin does not make the team – she tied for 4th, but the tie breaker according to the selection policy is the prelims swim, where Emily Overholt was faster.
Men’s 100 free was brutal. Only two guys under 50 and 51-mid for a 2nd swim. That’s embarrassing. (Not that it should matter, but I am Canadian.)
There’s no sustained progression in the men’s sprints here in Canada for 50 years!!
So does this mean Canada will not send a Men’s 400/800 free relay to pan pacs or CW games..?
Wow I had her down first in my first draft! Thanks for pointing it out it is now changed
Sorry, Victoria Poon.
What about Victoria Poor in the 100 freestyle?
Surprisingly lenient qualification standards for the Canadians, much like the Australians. I have a feeling the English have got it slightly wrong, our standards are ridiculous. A few examples…
50m Free – 21.6 & 24.59
400m Free – 3.45.85 & 4.04.03
100m Breast – 59.80 & 1.07.36
I suspect a lot of athletes will be getting through on what are essentially ‘B’ times.
