The WFCU Centre, home to junior hockey\u2019s Windsor Spitfires, has been converted to house a temporary pool where 933 athletes from 164 countries will compete for 46 gold medals.<\/p>\n<p>Preliminary heats are at 9:30 a.m. each morning, with finals set for 6:30 p.m. each night. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/sports\/olympics\/summer\/aquatics\/world-short-course-world-championships-1.3881730\" target=\"_blank\">CBCSports.ca is streaming the championships <\/a>beginning Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. ET. \u00a0Sportsnet will also be airing a highlight show after each night\u2019s action.<\/p>\n<p>Canada\u2019s young team will be focused on progression, improvement and gaining race experience in the lead up to next year\u2019s long-course worlds in Budapest and on to Tokyo 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving the FINA world short-course championships is a great opportunity to start the Tokyo quad,\u201d said Swimming Canada High Performance Director <strong>John Atkinson<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Quadruple Rio 2016 medallist and 100-m freestyle Olympic champion <strong>Penny Oleksiak<\/strong> headlines Team Canada, along with fellow individual Olympic medallists <strong>Kylie Masse<\/strong> (100-m backstroke) and <strong>Hilary Caldwell<\/strong> (200-m backstroke). Masse, who is from Windsor, has served as an ambassador for the event and featured prominently in promotional materials around town.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u201cObviously the Olympics was an amazing experience but in swimming we\u2019re always moving forward, so just trying to keep improving on my own times and my places and rankings,\u201d Masse said. \u201cComing off the summer I know that it\u2019s a completely different race from long-course to short-course, so I\u2019m just focusing on what I\u2019ve been doing the past few months to see what I can do.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Day 1 will be busy, as more than half of Canada\u2019s 31-member team (16 men, 15 women) is expected to get off the blocks. That includes the women\u2019s 4&#215;100-m freestyle relay, which was a successful event for Canada in Rio. Four of the five Rio bronze medallists \u2013<strong> Sandrine Mainville<\/strong>, Oleksiak, <strong>Taylor Ruck<\/strong> and <strong>Michelle Williams<\/strong> \u2013 are competing in Windsor.<\/p>\n<h3>A total of 17 Rio Olympians will represent Canada<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u201cFor them it\u2019s a return to international competition. It also brings valuable experience for 14 other Canadian swimmers in a home championships environment, which we saw in 2015 with the Pan Am Games can be really great for performances. \u00a0That said, only four of the 31 competed in the world short-course championships last time around in Doha in 2014. Therefore it\u2019s a relatively inexperienced team in terms of racing short-course. As such, our team goals, as through the last quad, will be improvement, converting heat swims into finals and racing hard in all the relays. Continuing to strategically develop our relays \u2013 both Olympic and non-Olympic \u2013 will continue as an important strategy of the team through the Tokyo quad,&#8221; Atkinson said.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Williams is coming in off a strong performance on the short-course Asian World Cup tour, where she grabbed two medals in the 50-m free. Meanwhile <strong>Katerine Savard<\/strong>, a 4&#215;200-m freestyle relay medallist in Rio, has added butterfly back to her repertoire, with a recent World Cup medal to show for it.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the meet is also an opportunity for Canadian coaches. Swimming Canada High Performance Centre \u2013 Victoria Head Coach <strong>Ryan Mallette<\/strong> is assuming the head coach role. After serving as a team coach for Canada\u2019s successful Rio 2016 Olympic Games, the 36-year-old takes on his first head coach title, Canada\u2019s fifth different head coach since 2014.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPart of our philosophy the last quad has been to rotate the head coach of the team role through different coaches. This is great experience for Ryan, who will do a tremendous job in this position. It\u2019s all part of creating opportunities for coaches in Canada. They all work together really well. We\u2019re looking to maintain that great coaching environment from Rio and carry that momentum into 2017,\u201d Atkinson said.<br \/>\nMallette has been on the senior national team staff for every major meet since 2014. He is supported by an outstanding coaching group that also includes Olympic Head Coach Ben Titley, 2015 World Championships Head Coaches <strong>Tom Johnson<\/strong> and <strong>Claude St. Jean<\/strong>, Rio 2016 team coaches <strong>Linda Kiefer<\/strong> and <strong>Kevin Thorburn<\/strong>, as well as <strong>Mike Blondal<\/strong> (University of Calgary) and <strong>Peter Schori<\/strong> (University of Lethbridge), and Swimming Canada\u2019s National Development Coach <strong>Ken McKinnon<\/strong>.<br \/>\n\u201cA home world championships not only gives experience to our athletes but also to our team coaches. Having nine coaches on the team staff gives a great opportunity to continue developing our coaching ranks as we start the journey to the 2020 Games,\u201d Atkinson said.<\/p>\n<p>Swim Canada supplied this press release to <em>Swimming World Magazine<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The FINA World Swimming Championships (25m) will be a chance for Canadian swimmers and coaches to gain valuable international experience on home soil.
