I've been watching and waiting for information regarding Long Course Nationals - particularly hotel information. I finally found a link on the Spire site to USMS hotels. As I began the process, I found this curious statement:
This is a "Stay to Play" tournament.
All teams are required to reserve a hotel room block through
Traveling Teams in order to participate in the tournament.
Does this mean that individuals are prohibited from booking their own rooms? Due to the lack of information, many of us have already booked rooms that meet our personal needs. Can someone clarify?
It's nice to hear there are others out there share my sentiments. I have enough trouble getting decent times at local meets since there's mixed men and women. One large male sandbagger that swims next to me and has a real 50 time several seconds faster than me and my race is pretty much over after the dive. I go to nationals to see what I can do under more ideal conditions.
Well, at least you know you won't have to swim with those men!
