    Sarah Sjöström has earlier decided to drop the Glasgow 2019 Europeans for the new ISL Swimming Series. Now it is also clear that World Cup high ranked Michelle Coleman will prioritize training rather than the Europeans, and that the sisters Louise and Sophie Hansson plus Victor Johansson willhanss skip the Europeans apparently due to obligations at their US colleges.

    Erik Persson, Simon Sjödin och Robin Hanson are preselected and will attend the Glasgow 2019 European Short Course Championships, while the rest of the team will be decided after the Swedish Short Course Championships in Eskilstuna on 13-17 November.
