    I can't beleive as swimmers all of you are O.K. with this. If my Y would disallow backstroke I think I would have a fit. What about all of the other dangers in the pool? Like diving. Even the best of swimmers can have an accident while diving. I pesonally know of two people who are paralized from pool accidents. If we do away with everything that can be a potential hazard then you pretty much have to do away with the pool. I can keep on going with accidents that can happen in the pool that would have nothing to do with backstroke.:mad:
