2026 Summer National Championship

August 5-9 in Sacramento, California

U.S. Masters Swimming is excited to bring Summer Nationals back to a brand new location, the North Natomas Aquatic Complex! The meet is expected to draw more than 1,200 swimmers to the sunny city of Sacramento. Entries close Monday, July 13 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific.

Entries may be capped for events 200 meters and longer to ensure the timeline is manageable for volunteers and officials. If an event you want to swim has reached its cap, use this form by July 15 to be considered from the waitlist. Swimmers should enter up to the maximum number of events desired, even if the available events are not their top choice. If we have the ability to add swimmers to distance events after the meet is seeded, entries will be added in the order received from the waitlist. Swimmers must have entered the meet by the July 13 entry deadline in order to be considered from the waitlist.
