Swimming at the 2022 Commonwealth Games – Qualification

There was a nominal total of 96 quota places available (in parasport events only) for swimming at the 2022 Commonwealth Games; 48 each for men and women.[1]

Rules

[edit]

Each Commonwealth Games Association (CGA) may qualify up to three places per event, which equates to a maximum quota of thirty-six. Seven places per event are determined by the World Para Swimming (WPS) World Rankings (for performances between 31 December 2020 and 18 April 2022), with the last spot reserved for a Bipartite Invitation; all those who qualify may also enter other events provided the three-per-CGA limit is respected.

The events are open to sport classes as follows:

  • Men's 50 m freestyle S7: S6/7
  • Men's 50 m freestyle S13: S11–13
  • Men's 200 m freestyle S14: S14
  • Men's 100 m backstroke S9: S8/9
  • Men's 100 m breaststroke SB8: SB7/8
