How do you do it? Do you have to get certain times to qualify? (German swimming has that, if you are under the standard time you'll likely get a spot on the team, so it happens that even the first two don't get a spot because the times were too slow.)
USA Swimming has the 1 - 2 rule. The first two get spots on the team. For the Worlds though they changed it a bit. They took the Nationals results and looked at the Pan Pacs times as well. If someone was faster at Pan Pacs than someone at Nationals, the Pan Pacs times got the spot on the Team.
