Standard Entry Times

                       Explanation:
                       1.The “A” standards for the 2022 Worlds were created by using the
                       faster of two times from:

                       •    The 2019 “A” qualifying time standard; and
                       •    The 16th place time from the 2019 World Championships

                       For this meet, the standards broke down as follows:
                        Women: 10 of the 2022 “A” time standards were the 2019 “A” time
                       standard, and 7 of the 2022 “A” time standards were the 16th place
                       time from the 2019 Worlds.
                        Men: 5 of the 2022 “A” time standards were the 2019 “A” time
                       standard, and 12 of the 2022 “A” time standards were the 16th place
                       time from the 2019 Worlds.

                        2. All “B” time standards were derived by multiplying the “A” time
                       standard by 3.5%.
                                                                                       23

BL 9.3.6.1
● For each individual event at the World Championships, the FINA Bureau will establish Standard Entry Times in two levels: “A” and “B”, of

TEAM INFORMATION

VENUE ACCESS:

Athletes will have access to all training venues and the competition venues where they are competing. For all other competition venues,
Athletes will be granted access to the Team Seating Area only.
Team Officials and NF Representatives
Individuals registered in these categories will have access to all competition and training venues.
Important note: each person must be registered under the function and role she/he will be fulfilling during the FINA World Championships.
If an individual will perform multiple functions, only the most senior position or the one granting the more fitting privileges (as required by
the tasks the person will need to perform at the event) shall be selected upon registration.
E.g.: if a NF Representative Board Member is also the Coach of the OW Team, this person should be registered as a "Team Official" and
"Coach" in order to have the correct accesses to fulfil her/his duties at the event.
The NF is entirely responsible for registering the participants with their correct functions and roles, so that the correct accreditations will be
issued. No accreditations will be changed or re-printed during the event.

LOSS OF ACCREDITATION BADGE:
If your accreditation badge is lost, it must be reported immediately to the nearest security personnel from the Organising Committee. A
penalty fee may be charged for the reproduction of lost accreditation badges.

                                                                                                                                              36
