Event schedule The Amateur Swimming Union of the Americas (ASUA) originally proposed an 8-day format for the Games, mimicking the Olympic order format with prelims/semifinals/finals. However, this was changed in June 2010 at the bequest of the local organizers to a 7-day format, changing to a prelims/finals only (with A&B finals).Notice of change to Swimming order of events Pan American Games Guadalajara 2011 , published by ASUA on 2010-06-15, retrieved 2010-06-17. The shortening was to allow for the Open Water races, which were the day following the Swimming competition, to move from Sunday, October 23, 2011, to Saturday, October 22 in Puerto Vallarta. As part of the formatting change, the men's 1500 free and women's 800 free were also moved from the last two days of the schedule to earlier in the program to distance them from the open water swim.Pan Am Games 2011 7 Day (Swimming) Schedule, from the ASUA website (www.uana-aquatics.org); retrieved 2010-06-17.
