Not a Fan of Short Course Meters Season

I'm not a big fan of short course meters meets. Maybe its my American bias, but I prefer the USA Swimming season format with two fairly distinct seasons - SCY (Fall thru Spring) and LCM (Spring/Summer). With limited meets to participate in (especially in the Northeast), I would prefer that the options were not even more diluted by short course meters meets. I would think that many Masters swimmers in the US (who mostly grew up in 25 yard pools) would agree. Just wondering what everybody else thinks.

  • My favorite is LCM,but at least here it is easier to find SCM meets.I prefer SCM to SCY because there is a little more opportunity to swim instead of just turn.With SCM you can compare yourself to the rest of the world,where as only the US swims SCY.I also like our having 3 separate seasons.
