https://community.usms.org/events/f/usms-national-championship-international-events/25949/y-nationalsquestionI have just a general question about the Y Nationals in April. In order to compete in that meet, do you need to be a member of a YMCA club team? Im a USMS member, however, team I am on is not a YMCA, and just curious if I can compete or not at that meeten-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/273256?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 28 Dec 2002 09:49:18 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:75893cb9-dc42-446a-bc83-62759eeb41bcNKMDThe Masters Y Nationals in Sarasota, FL information packet is now available online. <a href="http://www.ymcaswimminganddiving.org/2003Masters.htm">www.ymcaswimminganddiving.org/2003Masters.htm</a> Only 116 days left.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/273249?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 08 Dec 2002 08:56:35 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:5c658df3-98e7-4534-b68c-f23879e16f6bMelYou must be a full privileged member of a YMCA for no less than 90 days to compete in the YMCA Masters National Championship.

Sarasota Sharks do an excellent job running the meet and it is a great place for a &quot;swim vacation&quot;. Sarasota has wonderful beaches (Venice, Siesta, Lido, and Longboat).<div style="clear:both;"></div>
