When I was on the Resident Team, I remember us getting invited to the Australian short course (meters) champs. We didn't go, but I imagine many swimmers go out of the country to meets other than World cups.
Also, I would imagine teams get personal invites instead of national teams. Can you imagine the entire Michigan men's team going to a meet? You'd get slaughtered, but you'd race the best.
Ford Dealers Aquatic is one of the largest teams in the country. It is basically almost entirely made oup of South Africans, Zambwebians and other white Afrians. then it has kids from the area to mke up holes. I think htat was why Schoeman & Nethling were at Nationals.
