About this episode
In this episode of The Weekly Freestyle, I’m joined once again by Charlie Harris - Digital Communications Officer at Scottish Swimming and host of The Aqua Pod let's dive straight into one of the biggest talking points in swimming right now.
Let’s get straight to it… are Team USA trying to sabotage Team GB ahead of the LA 2028 Olympics?
We break down the controversial changes to the Olympic swimming schedule, including the moving of the 200M IM closer to the 4by2oom freestyle Relay final:
- Is this actually allowed?
- Who’s responsible for making these decisions?
- Can Team GB appeal?
- And is there anything Team GB (or other nations) could do in response?
We also look at past examples, from Leon Marchand’s schedule in Paris as he won butterfly and breaststroke gold in one night.
Plus, we lighten things up with a bonus segment: Pool of the Week, as Charlie shares his pick and we discuss what makes a great swimming venue.
As always, thanks for listening and a big thank you to Charlie Harris from The Aqua Pod for joining me once again.
