So, my 2017 Summer Nationals performance was OK, but left room for improvement and I'm thinking about planning to start training for 2018 Long Course Summer Nationals.
Oops, there is no USMS Summer Nationals in 2018, in deference to the UANA Pan American Masters Championships.
I cannot find any information about if we can participate, how one qualifies, if we have to join UANA, etc., etc.
I've checked the UANA site, the Orlando YMCA site, USMS site with no luck.
Does anyone have any information about the event and whether those of us who were expecting a USMS Summer Nationals can plan to swim at the UANA Championships?
there is however 1 small problem. the usms rules clearly state that a summer nationals must be held:
104.1
Meet Categories
USMS national championship meets shall be awarded in the following categories and
held during the following dates
104.1.2
Long Course (50) Meters—
Between August 1 and September 15. With the
approval of the Championship Committee, other dates may be considered
