There have recently
been a number of questions regarding the use
of two swimsuits during competition. Although the USA
Swimming Rules & Regulations do not specifically address
this, FINA has interpreted its General Rule GR 5.3 to allow the
use of only one swimsuit during competition.
Our Rules & Regulations require that USA Swimming's technical
swimming rules conform to those of FINA. In order for our interpretation
to conform to that used by FINA, the following interpretation
is being made, effective immediately.
For purposes of Article 102.9 of the USA Swimming Rules &
Regulations, Swimwear, the use of more than one swimsuit at a time during any USA Swimming sanctioned or approved
competition is prohibited.
|
Effective
May 1, 2009, USA Swimming's Board of Directors has
modified the racing start rule, 103.2.2
103.2 WATER DEPTH
|
Ruling
on Swimwear: Swimsuits worn for all 12
& under age group
defined competition shall not cover the neck, extend past the
shoulder.....more Interpretation of the breastroke push off.

This
is a great article
about swimming in the Adver
tiser. Skippa Diaz. "It's
a lifelong activity, and it relaxes the body and mind,"
Diaz said. Diaz also said the training and values he learned
as a youth swimmer helped him greatly in football. "It gives
you big-time strength," Diaz said. "It's very demanding,
with practices in the morning and afternoon - a double-whammy.
But it gave me that work ethic, the belief that if you want to
be good in anything, you gotta put in the time."

- The
Story of the butterfly
- A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.
- One day a small opening appeared.
- He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it
struggled to squeeze its body through the tiny hole.
- Then it stopped, as if it couldn't go further.....
