IMPORTANT Notice on Changes to
Swimwear Rules for Masters Swimmers
As you will probably be aware, FINA served a ban on
the new swim suits following the Rome World Championships
and introduced new regulations which basically excludes
use of the body suits. The full list of approved suits
was posted on 4th January 2010. Masters swimmers were
excluded form this new set of regulations at this stage
although USMS elected to align their Masters Regulations
with that of FINA.
At the FINA Meeting held in Bangkok on
14th -16th January they ruled that these changes would
in fact be applied top Masters Swimming as well and
have imposed this regulation from 1st January 2010
An extract of this meeting is shown below:
"14. Swimwear:
• Open Water: from June 1, 2010 Open Water Swimwear,
for both Men and Women, shall not cover the neck, extend
past the shoulder, nor shall extend below the ankle.
All Open Water swimsuits shall comply with the FINA
Criteria for Materials and Approval Procedures. Until
June 2010, the 2009 models can be used in order to protect
the athlete from sunburn, jellyfish etc.
• Masters: the same swimwear regulations as per
pool swimming will be applied from January 1, 2010."
