[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mentioned on the other thread, but the crazy boundaries for lanes 1 and 6 still blow my mind for an all star event. Rutherford were gracious hosts and I appreciate them stepping up.

Heads up for AS - Pinecrest depths where the timers/starts occur is only 2.5 ft.

I heard that at AS pool familiarization they will allow kids in the water because of this shallow end.

I can't believe there are meets in a pool that is this shallow. Sounds like an accident waiting to happen.[/quote]

Frankly I am shocked Pinecrest allowed to host any NVSL meets, never mind AS. Seems like a big liability issue.[/quote]

Yet Pinecrest, along with several other pools in the league, have meets all the time. And every, single time the swimmers seem to manage. Some even swim best times. Even so, there is a very simple solution to this: if you don’t like the depth of the host pool, host it yourself. The only reason Pinecrest is hosting is because none of your pools stepped up.

And some like my 15 year DD hit the bottom of the pool and scraped her knee up during our dual meet She’s also a winter club swimmer.

No, she didn’t swim best times in any of her events.  You’re also right that my pool did not step up. But 2.5 ft for diving is just not safe.[/quote]
