Our region (CMSA) is struggling coming up with a fair-to-all-swimmers order of events for our season ending region championships. We use Friday evening for the 1000/1650 (alternate years for each event). No problem there. On Sat & Sun, we have all other full events, including 4 relays (200 FR, 200 MR, straight and mixed of each). There is debate over the order of events. Any proposal seems to find someone that doesn't like it. I know it will be impossible to please everyone, but does anyone have a 2-day order of events that has worked well for them? Does USMS or USS have a recommended order of events for a 2-day championship meet? Anyone know? Thanks, Joe joemagiera@ameritech.net

  • Tom, Sorry to inform you that USMS has a 5 event maximum swims per day. Who knows you're a great flier and you might be a "good" breastroker if you give it a chance. They're both short axis strokes. Hey, I would swim everything if given the chance. Okay, all kinding aside. Joe, here is my suggestion: Day 1------Day 2 200 stroke and 50 stroke-----100 stroke (i don't mean all 200's on one day.) i.e. 200 fly 50 fly-----100 fly 100 back----200 back 50 back 100 ***------200 *** 50 *** 100 free and 500 free------200 free and 50 free 200 IM --------400 IM and 100 IM try to put breastroke and fly apart from the IM's either 400 IM/500 first.
