Following Australia's performance at the 2016 Rio Olympics where 29 medals were won and finishing 10th on the medal tally, Swimming Australia announced in the February 2017 that the timing of the selection trails would be modified.

A Para Grand Prix will be held in conjunction with the trials on the 13 to 14 June 2019.[3]
