International Swimming Rules Debate At Paris Meeting
The International AHF gathering at the Ing Club de France in Paris discusses proposals to erase a single country representation limit. A rule would require swimmers to hold citizenship of the country they represent and forbid prior national competition, with implications for Ireland’s status and Belgium’s participation. Backstroke notes argue for a single-handed touch at turns due to widespread use of the breaststroke crawl in practice.
