Updates to 2021 SEC Swimming & Diving Championships

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southeastern Conference has established a new format for the 2021 SEC Swimming & Diving Championships. 
 
The championships will now feature three separate events:

• Men’s and Women’s Diving on February 17-20 at the Mizzou Aquatic Center in Columbia, Mo.
• Women’s Swimming on February 17-20 at Gabrielsen Natatorium in Athens, Ga.
• Men’s Swimming on February 23-26 at the Mizzou Aquatic Center in Columbia, Mo.

 
The 2020-21 SEC men’s and women’s swimming & diving season began in October and will conclude no later than January 25, 2021 with regionalized competition permitted upon the adherence of opponents to SEC Medical Guidance Task Force Requirements for COVID-19 Management. Contests are limited to a dual-meet format unless alternative strategies are identified to limit the overall number of participants to ensure appropriate distancing. The number of events is at the discretion of each institution.
 
The SEC’s Return to Activity and Medical Guidance Task Force continues to meet on policies and procedures for the safe return of student-athletes to competition, building on the NCAA’s Resocialization of College Sports Guidelines.
 
The NCAA Division I Women’s Swimming & Diving Championships is scheduled for March 17-20 at the Greensboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, N.C., and the NCAA Division I Men’s Swimming & Diving Championships is set for March 24-27, also at the Greensboro Aquatic Center.
