Michigan Swimming Zone Team 2027

How Michigan Swimming picks its team

Anyone with the cut can go

A AAA time and an application. A swimmer can't enter an event in which they hold a Junior or Senior National cut.

From Michigan Swimming's 2026 selection information. LSCs post their 2027 rules in the spring; we update this page when they do.

Who's on track: the Power Score top 3

Every Michigan Swimming swimmer ranked by their best 6 USA Swimming Power Points across the Zones events, either course, last 12 months. How the Power Score works. Michigan Swimming doesn't pick its team by a score, so this is a readiness ranking, not a team prediction.

This board is being built and will appear within a week.

Questions parents ask

A AAA time and an application. A swimmer can't enter an event in which they hold a Junior or Senior National cut.

When and where is Age Group Zones in 2027?

The Central Zone 14 & Under Championships is August 5–8, 2027, Region 1, Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin. It's long course, for ages 10 & under, 11-12 and 13-14. No limit per LSC.

What time do you need for Zones?

In 2026 any National AAA time, in any course, qualified. Each 2027 region sets its own standards, which aren't posted yet. For Michigan Swimming, the cut is the whole test: anyone who holds it and applies can go.

What is the MySwimApp Power Score?

The sum of a swimmer's best 6 USA Swimming Power Points across the Zones events, in either course, over the last 12 months. Power Points put a 50 free and a 400 IM on one scale and adjust for age, so it ranks everyone in an age group the way most scored Zones selections do.
