2025 Open Water Nationals

Hi Ramjet08, the locations are still being finalized. We will post more information here as it becomes available. 

Thanks Jay. When does that typically happen? 

We made the 2024 announcement around this time last year. We're exploring new options for 2025 and hope to have more details to share within a month or so. 

Thanks!

I am seeing all the announcement for pool championships for 2-3 years out, and hoping to hear soon when USMS OWS Nationals will be and where.  Trying to get my schedule for the year figured out and really want to add a couple of them to m schedule.  Any idea when we are going to hear?

Soon! 

U.S. Masters Swimming will have five open water national championships at three venues across the country in 2025.

The 2025 USMS Sprint-Distance and Long-Distance Open Water National Championships will be April 4 and April 5, respectively, at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Florida. These events will run alongside USA Swimming’s Open Water National and Junior Championships.

The two 2025 USMS Cable Open Water National Championships will follow on May 31 at Chris Greene Lake Park in Charlottesville, Virginia, and the 2025 Ultramarathon-Distance Open Water National Championship will be July 13 in the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon.
