Hi Allen. We replied to comments on previous threads as well as making a Short Course Nationals announcement on a new thread. Entries open at 10am ET this morning and an email to members will follow. community.usms.org/.../2021-usms-short-course-national-championship-meet-information

So the meet is on. Great. I’m truly glad. It is unlikely I will attend, but it should be great. I think it’s a glitch in posting that this long awaited announcement appears as an add on reply in the middle of the thread.

And if/when then I need to discuss with American Airlines about the 50 % price they took and kept when we cancelled for last year's Nationals!

orca1946 We're trending in the right direction and hope to open entries in the next few weeks. Once the meet information is finalized, details will be published on usms.org with announcements to members via email and Community.

Looking at the events order --- I will be able to do 2 per day in selected events. Thanx for the info. Are we still in the "maybe" it is going to be held for sure category?

RE: 2021 Dates and Order of Events Confirmed?

Jim Clemmons — Mon, 03 May 2021 21:16:29 GMT

It'll be three per day maximum.

4 events in one day? WOW that would be an undertaking that I would not try!

Hi Denise.

We’re still working out the specifics but it currently looks like 5 or 6 for the meet. Daily limit may be up to 3 or 4. Again, we’re still working on the numbers so please don’t take this reply as firm.
Thank you,

Jim

What is the limit on the number of events (for which I have NQT) I can swim per day or total?

Hi Allen. We’re working towards holding the meet but it’s still not a certainty. We’re also still considering the associated date changes and their effect on the membership as a whole. Stay tuned, stay patient.

Allen Stark — Sat, 17 Apr 2021 22:08:58 GMT

So does this mean the meet is on?

Is the meet 20-21 or 21-22?

Understood Steve. The event order is one of many logistical items that are being discussed in overall planning to limit the number of participants in the facility at the same time. Planning will take a little more time to develop to ensure a safe event for USMS members. We will provide updates as soon as they are available.

It is important to know what the order of events will be so travel plans can be made and work related vacation obtained.

Hi Bill. Nothing is firm yet but assuming we can move forward with the championships, events dates can be found on the national championship pages www.usms.org/.../2021-pool-national-championships

The order of events are being actively discussed but remain a moving target as we work through COVID safety plans.

We’ll provide updates as available and include new information on the respective webpages.
