Procedure for getting USA-S Times to count for USMS Top 10
Former Member
How does one go about getting USA-S times to be submitted and to count for USMS Top 10? I have concerns about how difficult this process will be due to pool measurement and other requirements, etc.
I want to swim the 1500 LCM this summer and there is not one masters meet in my area that offers that event this summer. The closest meets are 8+ hours drive away in FL in July and I'd much rather swim that distance in a climate controlled environment. :frustrated: USA-S meets in my area offer this event. I'm already registered with USA-S.
Thanks for any ideas. I will plan on contacting one USAS/USMS official that I know personally. But was curious if anyone knew the exact (or even vague outline) process.
notify the top 10 person in your region
