2026 VICTORIAN OPEN LC CHAMPIONSHIPS
Friday, February 13th – Sunday, February 15th Melbourne Sports Centres (MSAC) Outdoor Pool LCM (50m) Meet Central Psych SheetThe 2026 Victorian Open Long Course Championships are slated for this weekend at the Melbourne Sports Centres (MSAC) outdoor pool.
Although not a qualifying competition, this 3-day affair is an important benchmark on the way to the all-important Commonwealth Games and Pan Pacific Championships selection meet, the 2026 Australian Swimming Trials on the calendar for June 7th – June 13th in Sydney.
This year’s Vic Open features several rising stars from down under, including Henry Allan of Bendigo East. The 17-year-old has been making waves in the backstroke events, owning a lifetime best of 53.72 from the 2025 Queensland Championships.
Olympians Isaac Cooper and Se-Bom Lee are also slated to race, as are a handful of foreign talent to the tune of Erika Fairweather and Lewis Clareburt of New Zealand and Olympic medalist Daiya Seto of Japan.
As for 26-year-old Clareburt, the versatile national record holder is listed as a Nunawading swimmer on the psych sheets, as opposed to a Kiwi-based club. We’ve reached out to the IM world champion to find out if he has permanently moved his training base to Australia in this Olympic quad.
