[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok I know this is a basic question but what is the difference between LCM and SCY? Is one yards and one meters?
What difference does the “summer” component make. Does the “S” stand for summer or “short”.
I am confused!! Help?[/quote]

LCM races are swim in an Olympic-sized 50 meter pool.  So a 100 race would be across the pool and back.  Generally, meets with LCM events are swum between April and August, which is where the summer part comes in. This is NOT talking about summer leagues (NVSL, MCSL, etc) but USA Swimming meets.  SCY is a 25 yard pool (so how the indoors pools normally are configured).  Short Course Yards is usually swum from fall to March.[/quote]

This. While summer has nothing to do with SCY, it does relate to club swimming a little. Summer teams do only 25s or 50s with no dive blocks. Club meets have dive blocks and usually longer events. A kid who does well at summer 50 meter free, may do much better or much worse at a 200, 500, 1000, etc. free. [/quote]
