The following statement has been issued by British Swimming regarding the forthcoming 2021 British Swimming Championships.
British Swimming has unveiled a number of changes to its flagship annual swimming meet, following the unveiling of the UK Government’s roadmap on Monday 22 February.
Due to the ongoing COVID restrictions, continued uncertainty around the exact timetable of easing of lockdown, and in recognition that relatively few swimmers are back in training, the meet has been scaled back, with the ultimate focus being senior selections for international competition later this year.
The meet will now be reduced in length by one day, running from Wednesday 14 to Sunday 18 April.
