The national qualifying times for the 2019 U.S. Masters Swimming Spring National Championship have been released. The meet will be held April 25-28 in Mesa, Ariz. More info about the meet, such as hotels, can be found on our meet info page. (Please read this info about the national qualifying times.)
This year there are now 3 events that are only open to those with qualifying times:
* 1650 free
* 1000 free
* 400 IM
Where did you read this? As far as I can tell the 1650 is the only event where swimmers are required to meet the qualifying time to enter:
Competitors may enter up to three individual events without meeting the national qualifying times, or a maximum of six events if they meet the NQTs (i.e. have swum a time equal to or better than the NQTs during the past two years). Exception: Competitors entering the 1650 freestyle must meet the NQT
