I have two questions about Joining USMS.
1. based on the USMS web site, the nearest "official" masters team to me is in the next county. Since I hope to compete, do I join that team even though I don't know anyone there will probably never meet them?
Or, is it better to go unattached.
2. In an event, like the 100 fly, how many entries are there, average? Is it co-ed. and what are ranges of times that event at a typical local meet. How far do people travel to compete. Do you guys all know each other?
Thats more than two questions.:confused:

What county are you in?
Our team is in southern California.
Maybe SPMA can help you locate a team?
You can also swim attached to a team, if you wish, even if you don't get to train with them. That way you can meet us at the meets.
Our team travels to almost all meets within the SPMA, we go as far as arizona and Nevada for meets, especially Zone meets. Wr also come to nationals... and have several members that swim out of the area, even out of state, but still swim for our team.
