A host of Dolphins will miss the event and World Championship selection due to injury, including 2020 Olympian Chelsea Hodges who has required surgery to repair torn cartilage in her right hip.[2] William Yang will also miss the event after undergoing surgery to remove a benign tumour in his spinal canal.[3] Breaststroker Jenna Strauch is another withdrawal from the event having not overcome a knee injury, while Zac Incerti will not compete after having commenced a shoulder rehabilitation program.[4][5] Ben Armbruster was a late withdrawal from the meet with a rib injury.[6]

On the final day of the event, Swimming Australia selected a 38-person team. The team consists of 31 aquatic swimmers and 8 open water swimmers. Moesha Johnson will swim in both disciplines, having qualified in the 1500m freestyle and 5km open water events. Bianca Crisp, Kai Taylor and Jack Wilson are set to make their Dolphins debut in Fukuoka.[7]
