At risk of "beating a dead horse"....at least in respect to broaching this topic again! I had a number of conversations at convention with people who would like to see USMS move to a 3rd Championship meet in the fall for short course meters.
There are some great Zone meets going on...when you have 600+ going to Long Beach or New England why not up the ante a bit?
Thoughts?
actually, it is very possible for a "long course" pool to be able to set up as 2xSCM with normal width bulkheads. a typical (newer) LCM pool is more than 50m, in order to accommodate the bulkheads. case in point- UMd's pool in College Park is actually 52m from wall to wall, in order to make room for the 2 one meter wide bulkheads.
