A transparent and rigorous selection pathway for national swimmers and technical officials representing Brunei Darussalam.

Swimmers selection

A fair and performance-oriented pathway

Brunei Aquatics is committed to transparent and thorough selection of national swimmers for international competitions. Our process aims to ensure a fair and performance-oriented approach to assembling the national squad.

Selection considers not just past performances, but also versatility, consistency, and potential. The process is reviewed regularly to keep it aligned with the strategic goals of Brunei Aquatics.
