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.

I tried to get help for up and coming swimmers in 1958. It always fell on deaf ears.
My proposal was that we have paid coaches and paid for pool times so the cost for parents would be minimal.
I later made it possible for the government to pay a traveling swim adviser. The swim adviser was working with several clubs. This swim adviser himself ended the programme, he was caught in a raid where a Marijuana distributor was weighing out his sales stash and he was fired.
