The 8th FINA World Junior Swimming Championships was held from 30 August to 4 September 2022 at the Videna Aquatic Center in Lima, Peru.[1] It was open to competition for girls ages 14 to 17 years old and boys ages 15 to 18 years old at the end of the 2022 calendar year.[2] All events were conducted in a 50-metre (long course) pool.
Originally the competition was planned for 24–29 August 2021, however the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in its postponement to 24–29 August 2022.[3] In April 2022, FINA announced a change of dates as well as a change host from Kazan, Russia to Lima, Peru due to the 2022 Russia invasion of Ukraine.[4] The same month, FINA announced athletes and officials from Belarus and Russia were banned from the Championships.[5]
Qualification
Various qualification systems were implemented internationally, one of which used by Swimming New Zealand and Swimming South Africa was the selection of swimmers to compete at the 8th World Junior Swimming Championships from pre-defined national-level competitions based on the swimmers's times and overall national rank of their performances across the defined competitions, only the top two were eligible per individual event.[6][7] Another selection procedure, put forward by Swim Ireland before the location and dates of the Championships were changed and retained after the change, was based on swimmers achieving pre-defined consideration times at a national championships or the 2022 European Junior Championships and overall national rank.[8][9] Prior to the change of dates and location in 2022, British Swimming also announced a selection procedure, basing selection on swimmer performances at a single selection meet, the 2022 British Swimming Championships.[10]
Schedule
A total of 42 events were competed over six days, starting on 30 August and concluding on 4 September.[11]
