The swimming competition at the 2002 North American Indigenous Games is tentatively scheduled from August 2 - August 4, 2002. The swimming competition at the 2002 North American Indigenous will be held at the Pan Am Pool in Winnipeg.
Events are either heats and finals or just finals, dependant on the number of entries.
This format will be followed for Special Olympic athletes as well. All officials will be designated by the Host Society and approved by Swim Manitoba. All members of the team must be from the same province. To accommodate the number of participants, swimmers may move up to complete a higher age class relay team, but they may not compete in the same relay event in two different age categories. The swimmers must supply their own equipment and must comply with FINA rules.
