Sorry for the delay.

The eight-day format and May 17-22 FINA World Open Water Champs, the many rounds of swimming surely took their toll. TBA Mel Zajac International, Vancouver Ft.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • January 2017
    Ontario Aquatic Hall of Fame Newsletter - January 2017 Congratulations Olympic & Paralympic Games- Ontario Swimmers Swimming on Olympic & Paralympic Teams Mike West has provided us some insight as an Olympian and voiced his feelings about this Summer’s Games: 2016 Olympic Team: “It was so exciting to watch the Canadian team swim with such confidence. Javier Acevedo (MAC) We’ve been through some lean years with respect to medals for Canadian swimmers at Ashton Baumann * the Olympics, it is so validating to see our swimmers get to the podium, and win gold (Ottawa) medals - way to go Penny. Dominique Bouchard (OAK) Overall I’m feeling really hopeful about the future of Canadian swimming - I get the Santo Condorelli (Kenora) sense that the team feels like they actually belong at the party. Mack Darragh (OAK) Kennedy Goss * (GGST) Hilary Caldwell said it so confidently after her 200 back - that reaching the podium was Audrey Lacroix (ANM) now “normal” for Canadian swimmers - and I think this is such a shift in thinking for our Brittany Maclean (ESWIM) swimmers. Sandrine Mainville (CAMO) When I swam in 1984 it wasn’t “if” you made the podium, it was where on the podium Kylie Masse (WEST/UT) you would be standing. And that is the feeling that I think is spreading through our Martha McCabe (TSC) Canadian team after Rio - our swimmers now have the confidence to not only compete Penny Oleksiak (TSC) with the best in the world, but to also contend for medals, including gold medals, at the Erika Seltenreich- international stage.
