All amateur swimmers 18 and over should be required to swim at least one masters meet per year. This would help with the transition into adult life, and really show the younger generation the value of masters swimming. Adults who continue to love the sport, that's a great networking tool and a positive way to stay involved with people of similar interests.

$30,000 where did you swim? WOW $2,500 a month. Our club charged $15.00 a year. Did you swim at the Winter Club in TO? You must have been involved in swimming in Alberta when they were using a has been Australian Coach.
Lots of parents sent their kinds to chase a dream coaches. When their kids could probably receive better coaching at the local club. That is when kids all over the country went to swim at a club 1500 or 2000 miles away. That is costly.
There were no Universities in Canada offering scholarships. But the good local coaches managed to get them scholarships in USA schools. My brother had a few swimmers go to U of Maryland.
