You guys are going to be disadvantaged!
The British masters swimmers have been given the 'all clear' to carry on wearing their suits. Already, swimmers from other countries who have aged up this year are applying to swim in meets in the UK. They will be going for records.
I'm really surprised that you didn't tell FINA to go to hell, just as masters federations on the continent have done. Surely you don't think your masters swimmers are going to be a threat to Michael Phelps's world records if they wear a bodysuit?
