Britain's swimmers with ambitions of competing at a home Olympic Games will determine their fate at the Aquatics Centre in London in March 2012.
The British Gas Swimming Championships 2012 will double as the first selection trials where lifelong dreams and motivations will be realised or shattered as swimmers compete for places on the British team bound for London in July.
Swimmers will compete across eight days at the Championships for the chance to represent their country as the event replicates the full Olympic schedule.
The event will run from 3rd to 10th March 2012 and will also be open to international swimmers as Olympic organisers use it as the official test event prior to the Games in July.
British Swimming National Performance Director Michael Scott believes the trials being held in the Olympic venue will provide added incentive for swimmers and a fantastic opportunity for the public to view their national heroes.
"What better venue and environment for our swimmers to compete and earn a place on the 2012 Olympic team.
"The Aquatics Centre will provide the perfect backdrop for us to showcase the sport and athletes to the British public."
