[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still cannot believe this is real. This is so unsafe. Catastrophic SCI is a lifelong life altering injury. I’m a [b]USA swimming certified official and anything less than 4’ must be an in water start. (Rule 103.2) [/b] Swimmers who have not yet learned a shallow racing dive must practice in 6’ of water. That practice begins with deck starts. These are summer swimmers. Not all are as proficient as year round swimmers with years of experience. If I had a child in this meet I would absolutely pull them. I’m certified as a starter in my summer league and also USAS and if I were an NVSL official I would refuse to work this meet. I would seriously question if my umbrella liability policy would cover me if an injury occurred because I consider forward deck starts into 2.5” grossly negligent.
