why doesn't masters apply the same age rule for short course as it does for long course?
In long course meets a persons age is determined by their age by the end of the year.
so at worlds there were 24, 29 , 34, 39, 44, ... year olds
who competed in the next age group up because they aged up later in the year.
In short course competitions a persons age is determined by their age at either the end or beginning of the competition.
I encourage USMS to be consistent and
consider adopting the same rules for short course competitions
Ande
maybe dates are too tricky for fina - is it mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy? i like the fina rule - i have a november birthday and got to swim up at worlds this year. i'd like to swim up in scy too!
