So I have been swimming with a masters team since august and have since then paid my usms membership fee at the end of October to be able to swim in a meet we recently had. I haven't recieved my usms card in the mail yet. In two weeks and am going back home from school for a month but need to swim in a structured program and am gonna find the masters team at home and wanted to know if I could still swim with them without my membership card, is there a way to prove my membership without it?
Go take a poll of every water aerobics class, physical therapist, nutrtional expert, personal trainer on what they know about USMS and I'll bet anyone $100 that 99% have no idea what USMS stands for let alone what it offers.
Gotta agree with this. Virtually no one I've ever run into on a casual basis or in one of the above fields has any clue what "masters swimming" is. Unless they're a masters athlete themselves, and probably a triathlete, forget it.
