2018 USA Swimming Schedule

January 29, 2018 | By

The middle year between the Olympic quadrennial is always a struggle for swim fans to maintain their excitement. The post-Olympic euphoria has dissipated, there are no major international events and it’s too soon to start thinking about the next Olympics or even get excited about the following summer’s World Championships.

The big international event is slated to be the Pan Pacs in Tokyo -- but with the struggles of the Australian team on the big stage the past few years, one wonders if a dual meet between the U.S. and Canadian women might have just as much allure.

But there is one caveat. With the 2019 World Championships acting as a major lead-up to Tokyo and that 2019 Worlds team selected from the results at 2018 U.S. Nationals – this summer’s nationals loom large on the calendar. So book your ticket to Irvine this July as perhaps the biggest swim meet on U.S. soil until 2020 Olympic Trials!
