Championship Suits

Hi all,

I am writing to inform you that I was informed by the NJSDC about a rule change regarding suits that can be worn at Championships and Conferences.

13-overs: 13overs are allowed to wear kneeskins / fastskins of any type (complying with FINA swimsuit specifications) for Championships and Conferences. 

12unders: 12unders are not allowed to wear any type of kneeskin or fastskin.

The official rule from the rulebook is at the bottom of this email. See you all this weekend! Stay hydrated and stretch! If there are any other questions, please let me know!
GO BROOKSIDE!
