Looking at the 4x50 Free and Medley World Records for 120-159 and 160-199. I just don't like seeing teams from Finland, Italy and Canada holding records in those age-groups - so who is coming to Long Beach and interested in swimming a relay ? Time + Age requirements: Free for the 120-159 avg = 23.58 (that's fast) Free for the 160-199 avg = 24.0 + we need the right ages *** / Back and Fly - records are 1:44 and 1:46 - also very fast, looking for *** around 30-31 (at least) - Back 26-27 and Fly 25+ By the way - these are not yard times - :) If you are interested reply here or send me a PM + START SWIMMING UNATTACHED until we figure what team we can do this under. We have 2 people right now - so we need at least 2 more

  • Am I the only one that has a problem with this thread? This reminds me of the old Holmes Lumber Team from the 80's. Recruit to break records! I am a member of a current WR relay team where all 4 members swim together on the same team and have for more then 10 years. That is a true World Record relay TEAM. We are teammates. If you proceed with this type of recruitment I hope you are very content with the hollow victory. While it may meet the letter of what is allowed, in my mind, it doesn’t meet the spirit of masters swimming.
