Just a reminder that as of Sept 23, 2009 the "distance" Relay Events for Long and Short Course Meters are eligible for FINA Masters World Records. These events include the 400 Free, 400 Medley and 800 Free for Men, Women and Mixed. Standard World Record documentation is required.

Follow Up question on this - how is this going to work - trying to get the right info to my swimmers ?
1) Is it true that relays with swimmers below age 25 are not allowed for FINA records - even if the combined age is 120+ or so (I am guessing because FINA does not recognize them as Masters swimmers) ???? Which would have been good to know prior to this weekend .....
2) Who will get FINA certificates ? IF there was no existing record - will everybody who completed the relay get a FINA certificate ? If there was a record, will every team who broke the record get a certificate ?
