The 2003 New England Short Course Yard Championship (NE-LMSC Sanction 034-003-SSCY) will be held on Saturday March 22nd (1000 and 1650 only) and Friday March 28th through Sunday March 30th (all other events) at Harvard's Blodgett Pool in Cambridge, MA.
Last year, this was the largest regional SCY championship meet in the US. We will again benefit from the meet management services of www.swimindex.com featuring live scoreboard, webcam, real time results, etc. Some 40+ NEM workout groups will be competing for the title of 2003 NEM Grand Champion and we expect 700+ athletes, 4,000+ individual splashes and 300+ relays this year. Additionally, a number of non-NEM, USMS clubs will be sending large contingent of swimmers in an attempt to win the "foreign" swim club awards.
A meet information sheet and entry form will be posted before the end of January at: www.swimnem.org

Lets see
New England Masters 2002: 675 swimmers 3166 splashes
Pacific Masters 2002: 823 swimmers competed and the meet recorded 3214 splashes
Hmmm, Pacific had 148 more swimmers and 48 more splashes, I guess that is right New England is the largest regional SCY championship meet, after all they are the self proclaimed "center of competive Masters swimming." ;-)
And with 25 more swimmers NEM is going to get over 834 more splashs. I am impressed.
