   Responsiblility and Awareness                                                                       
As elite athletes begin competing at the national level, it is important to understand the rules and guidelines that govern our competitions concerning performance enhancing substances and practices.  Parents should take the time to talk with their swimmers and educate themselves about these rules and responsibilities.  These links can provide valuable information that help us make great choices.
