I think the "new" policy is a mistake. How will you resolve inconsistent measurements by USMS swimmers? .
What "new" policy. This policy has been in place since 2003, I believe. This is not new. The act of a USMS swimmer going to a non-USMS sanctioned event and having to get an official to measure the pool is not new either. The swimmer doesn't measure the pool, an official (the meet director in my case) does.
The meet you went to happened, it wasn't up to standards for USMS, people were told ahead of time, now get over it.
