I recently got a email from my age group swim team. They sent out a mass email about deck changing. Ohio rules now are if you are caught changing on deck before or after practice you are then suspended for a week and also the next swim meet. If caught at a meet doing this, you will be immediately removed from meet and the team will suspend you one week.
Is this pretty much a standard rule across the club teams or now a USS rule? I suppose I can see how this can become an issue and concern. Have to say I have not seen many masters doing the deck change, although I admit, I have deck changed at a masters meet but not at a USS meet.
Here's the extreme extension of this idea to test your modesty: a runner friend once told me they did the Berlin Marathon and that loads of men and women strip down to the buff for post-race, public showers. Not sure if that's 100% true, but, if so, I'll stick to just deck changing.
Hmm, ok, yeah, I'm more modest than that. I guess there are degrees and degrees.
