Registration extension at Worlds

michaelmoore
Due to the confusion of last minute entries, we realized that not everyone who wanted to enter was able to. If you were unable to complete an entry by 3 June, you may fax your entry to 01 650 852 9383 You can get an entry book at http://www.2006finamasters.org on the right side there is a column. Choose this if you are swimming www.2006finamasters.org/.../swimming022006.pdf Otherwise choose www.2006finamasters.org/.../meetbook120805.pdf It has all the forms in there. Be sure to write clearly. Do not sent photographs. We will take your picture when you are accredited. Be sure to bring some government issued identification (eg passport or drivers license) to accreditation. If you have questions, you can email info@2006finamasters.org (preferred). To talk to a live person you can call 01-415-898-3467 We look forward to seeing you at Stanford in August. michael Michael W. Moore, chairman XI FINA World Masters Organizing Committee

    Originally posted by jim clemmons The deadline was not extended. I don't know what you read to get that impression. It may not have been extended, but I understand that the organizers are still accepting entries. People just want to know until when they will continue to accept entries. When giving information about the worlds on this forum, it might be a good idea to remember that a lot of people reading this information are not from the United States, and English may not be their native language (as is the case with me). Therefore, we may get confused, and ask for clarification just one more time. Thank you for your patience with swimmers from around the world! We'll be arriving soon!
  • Your English seems very good. I read it as an extension also.

    Thank you, Howard. I was really beginning to doubt my English comprehension skills, which I like to think are not bad! :rolleyes:

    Originally posted by dorothyrde Your English seems very good. I read it as an extension also. Thanks Dorothy! :D People use a lot of colloquial English in the forum, which is normal, of course. So people from abroad looking for information about the worlds may have a little trouble. By the way, before using the word colloquial I looked it up on an online dictionary, just to be sure. It sounds about right: col·lo·qui·al (k-lkw-l) KEY ADJECTIVE: Characteristic of or appropriate to the spoken language or to writing that seeks the effect of speech; informal.
