Has the Championship Committee, or other entity within USMS ever discussed having a more strict policy of enforcement in regards to the NQT's?
Why do we state that you must have 3 cuts, in order to swim more events? Why not require a swimmer to have 6 cuts in order to swim 6 events?
Just like to understand more from a historical point of view. I have read post that asked, or suggested how to control the size and length of the National meets. Would not having a stricter enforcement of this policy help? Or would it cause swimmers to shy away from these meets?
Just a curious thought.
Thank you.
Well, it depends upon the local teams and of course the facility needs to be able. Our next door neighbor-SPMA had about 6 meets this past short course. But they have about 20 teams that compete in master events. Some different clubs are more able and willling to do it.SPMA is in an area of 16 million people bigger than the population of most states. In Arizona, the Phoenix metro is about 3 million, the size of Orange County in the SPMA, they held about three meets in Orange County in short course. I don't know if local members can get their local teams to do more meets. For the smaller population states that have maybe 10 teams in the whole state that are hundreds miles apart this is harder to do.
