At the NCS Leadership Luncheon, Dave Thomas of USA Swimming spoke on leadership and athlete involvement in the sport of swimming. Several athletes from around the state were in attendance and many stayed for the NCS House of Delegates meeting, which followed the luncheon. There was a lot of good discussion on the importance of athlete involvement. Matthew Rigsbee of the Carolina Aquatics Team summarized his experience as a participant in the USA Swimming Leadership Summit in Houston.
The athletes in attendance elected Jack Nowacek of East Carolina Aquatics as their new junior athlete representative.
Below is a link to the legislation passed by the 2017 House of Delegates that goes into effect on January 1, 2018. Questions regarding the interpretation of these rules should be directed to Jay Thomas at jayfthomas@gmail.com.
