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.

Wow, perhaps a little more subtle on the delivery next time?!?!
No point in being subtle...that's his opinion... let him express it. I do agree with people that we should promote that people can compete in meets, if they want too but it should also be promoted that it is a great way to stay healthy without being forced to race.
One day, maybe I will race again, but if I am forced too..no way.(..did enough of that in hs/age group/college)...then it would be a stupid idea.
