The Program of Events and Qualifying Times for the 2024 Australian Age & MC Age Championships are below.

Information Book and other event information will be released later in the year.

*MC QTs updated 02/11/23: updates to S18 qualifying times

**27/11/23: The Program of Events from Day 3 onwards has been slightly modified. All 50m form stroke events (backstroke, butterfly, breaststroke) are now Timed Finals, swum slowest heat to fastest heat in the morning sessions only. This change has been made to enable athletes and coaches to focus on improved performance in Olympic events, which are also the selection events for the 2024 Junior Pan Pacific Championships held later in the year.
MC 50m form stroke events remain unchanged.

Swimmers may only contest one club 4x50m freestyle relay, one club 4x50m medley relay, one club 4x100m freestyle relay, one club 4x100m medley relay, one state 4x50m freestyle relay and one state 4x50m medley relay across the Championships.

Each state may only enter one team in each state relay event.

Events 44 – 49, 4x50m Freestyle State Relays can be made up of 4 swimmers from the relevant age bands at your discretion. However, for fairness across gender and age brackets, events 204 – 208, Mixed 4x50m Medley State Relays must be formed with 2 female and 2 male swimmers from the relevant age band.
For eg. Event 207 Mixed 13/14 years State Medley Relay must consist of 2 x 13 year old female swimmers and 2 x 14 year old male swimmers. This ensures that each of the four age groups of each gender will be involved.

Club Relay entries are to be submitted via Swim Central.

State Relay entries can only be submitted via TM File or via a Manual Entry link. Please reach out to Shannon via events@swimming.org.au for a copy of the TM File or enter via the State Relay Manual Entry Form.
