The New Approach to Meets

swoomer

Iâ€Tmm really gratified to hear that USMS is approving sanctions beginning in November. That doesnâ€Tmt mean that any and all can swim in a particular meet. Some of us “race horses” are looking for competition. In my area, a team has a sanction for “members only”...an inter squad meet. So exclusionary events are OK? I live close by, but canâ€Tmt compete because Iâ€Tmm not affiliated with that team. How can this be a USMS event? ....I assume that records and Top Tens will be available to participants. I understand the limitations of COVID, and donâ€Tmt begrudge a team from having an inter squad meet, but if it is in the name of the organization at large, to the exclusion of our members, I must question. Any thoughts?

    Small meets are always welcome by those who set them up. Covid has disrupted more than our swims in the country and world! On a side note -- this season I have a torn rotator cuff.arthritis pain in my left knee, pain in my 5 operations right hip and a very sore foot from a flip turn that I did that landed my heel on the pool edge! A meet is not in my distant future but, will look forward to one when we in Illinois can arrange one!
