How para entry works here
The Next Gen Championships invite para swimmers on Aquatics GB Para Swimming Points. In 2026 a swim on the long course para rankings had to reach 400 points for S1 to S4, 550 for S5 to S10, 500 for S11 to S13 or 600 for S14 to be considered.
Reaching the points is not a place: the three highest scorers in each group were invited first, then the highest scorers across all groups until each event was full. The 50 freestyle took 20, the 100 freestyle 30, and most other events 10 or 20.
Only long course swims from 1 September 2025 to 10 May 2026 counted. Times from time trials and split times did not.
The 2027 conditions are not out yet. Until they are, use these results as targets.
Guide: These are the 2026 points for consideration, used as a guide until the 2027 conditions are published. Reaching them means a swimmer is considered, not that they are invited.
