USA Swimming database

No, there was a sheet at the Clerk of Course's table at Nationals that you could fill out to have your times submitted to SWIMS. My times aren't showing up yet either, Paul. I'm sure they will at some point.

thanks, Keith. Not trying to pressure them, just wondering as I would like to use those times for an LCM meet at the end of June.

I'll be gone the next 2 days, but I'll try to remember to ask the Meet Director about this on Thursday.

I got my times from Colonies Zones into the SWIMS Database no problem. Of course, Cheryl Ward told me that there were alot of emails exchanged about how to get this done. But, that would be a good place to get them submitted into the SWIMS next year because she is a pro now. Now, I can do USS meets that require Qualifying Times and have Finals in them. Plus, I have the option now of doing a March taper for the LSC Senior Champs which I might not have to travel far for depending on where the meet is at. The SWIMS Database is a very fun tool. You can check your rankings in an individual event. Plus, if you live in high altitude or swim a High altitude meet, the time will be adjusted. My ranking this year in the 200 LCM fly is 751 and 1500 free is 698. In yards, I am ranked 3174 in the 200 yard fly.

USMS does not use the SWIMS database - that is for USA Swimming. If you are thinking of the USMS Meet Results Database: www.usms.org/.../resultstrack.php all of my individual swims are showing up fine.

I didnt fill out the sheet at nats but is there any way to get my times in the swims database?

I didnt fill out the sheet at nats but is there any way to get my times in the swims database? I would ask knelson or Chris Stevenson because they are always getting their Nationals times into the SWIMS. But, I would guess that it might be too late. Then again, I am not 100% on that. Another suggestion, email the meet director from Spring Nationals.

But I THINK you have to request it beforehand so that the officials can verify that you did the race according to USA-S rules.

I read the Indy LCM Nationals Meet info and here is the info regarding getting your times at LCM Nats into the SWIMS TIME VERIFICATION (FORMERLY OVCs) Swimmers needing verification of time(s) or wish their times to be entered into the USA Swimming SWIMS Database (for entry into USA-S national meets) should complete a form at the meet and prior to the swim. Contact the Administrative Referee at the meet.

Thanks, Keith. I just checked and still don't see the times, but I'm sure they will appear soon. I'd have to agree with USA Swimming's stance on the fly rules. It's pretty unlikely that anyone who requested having their times put in SWIMS used a breaststroke kick in a fly event, but "unlikely" isn't good enough.
