[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forgot to add. It is in the swim rules: 5. The use of the starting blocks is restricted to approved swim practices, swim meets, and during instruction. https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/rec/resources/files/aquatics/aqrules.pdf Just looked it up and in 1986 a 14 year old swimmer was paralyzed in Montgomery County using starting blocks and awarded 4.1 million. [/quote] They won't let you practice racing starts, but then you go to a swim team tryout, and they make the kids off the blocks who have never been off the blocks. You report them to USA Swimming Safesport, and they don't do anything. Oops sorry, then they blacklist you.[/quote]
