South Korea's Australia-based Park Tae-Hwan and 10 members of the Aussie Olympic squad, including champions Leisel Jones and Stephanie Rice will join 10 members of Canada’s London 2012 team, including sprint ace Brent Hayden at the Mel Zajac Jr. International meet May 25-27 at the University of British Columbia Aquatic Centre in Vancouver.
“Having great talent from Australia, Korea and the US at the meet really helps create a competitive atmosphere, which everyone can feed off of,” said 2-time Olympian, Scott Dickens, via Swim Canada.
“This meet will be a great opening to my racing preparation towards the Olympics later this summer, as I can use these performances and build on them as I get closer to London,” he added when looking forward to a meet that forms part of Swimming Canada’s Canada Cup series.
