Does anyone know if short course converted times are valid for qualification purposes? From the meet information, it seems like there's not an issue unless you don't actually swim a qualifying time at Worlds. But I'm not sure about proving a qualified time and I didn't see anything about being able to swim a certain number of events without qualfiying times (like USMS Nationals).
I sent an email to their general Info address about a week ago but haven't gotten a reply so thought I would address this forum.
I'm not sure that it's ever happened, but the host can stop a swimmer during his/her race if it's obvious that they will not make the qualifing time.
my guess is it's more common with the 800 and 400 events.
