Hi all,
I'm at the Orlando LCM meet. They have me listed as an incorrect age - 34. I kept a copy of my entry sheet and it clearly lists me as my correct birthday and age (35). I brought this to the attention of the meet director Nick.
He said he would fix it after the meet. However, the heat sheets and results list me as 30 to 34 age group. So, I'm showing up as first in 30 to 34 and felt the results should reflect me in the 35 to 39 age group.
My times are enough to get me into top 10 in 35 to 39 - 200 fly and 800 free.
So, I'd like them to count as top 10s (I've had many of my top 10s not count in the past due to administrative errors such as not measuring the pool etc.)
What else should I do in this situation? What are the rules? Should I just not worry about it and let him fix it at the end of the meet? Or do I need to insist that he correct it now so the results are correct? My birthday is 9/22/72 and as of 12/31/07, I'm 35.
Thanks to anyone who knows.
This happened to me at a meet once. It was no big deal. I told the meet director and it was changed. I think it was changed by the end of the meet, but I can't recall. When the results came out, my times were reported in the correct age group. Just make sure the meet director is aware of the situation and doesn't send results to USMS until the correction is made. I'm sure he/she would want the results to be accurate.
Great going girl!! :applaud: (Odd choice of events, however. LOL.)
