The Paris 2024 Olympics are fast approaching, but before we dive into 16 days of competition that includes gymnastics, diving, swimming, and track and field, let's take a look at who will be selected for Team USA at the 2024 Olympic Team Trials. First up are the Olympic Swimming Trials. This week, more than 700 swimmers, including Lilly King, Katie Ledecky, and Caleb Dressel, will gather at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana to compete for a spot on Team USA. A football stadium has been converted into a swimming venue to host the trials, which seems fitting considering many of the swimming events at the Paris Olympics will also be held in temporary pools (when they're not swimming in the Seine, that is).
Ready to see which Team USA hopefuls will make the biggest splash? Here's everything you need to know about how to watch the 2024 US Olympic Swimming Trials.
