So I when I qualified for the Age Group Worlds last year at Shreveport, USAT had me pay them a check in the amount of $200 or $300, I can’t even remember the amount. Does someone remember?
That was last September. In the meantime there has not been one email, not one phone call, not one letter, not even an update on their website, explaining the plan for the Worlds in Honolulu. It says that there will probably be a headquarters hotel for the team, and some other things, but nothing really of any detail or specifics. I realize there is still one more Nationals next weekend, which will finalize the team, but doesn’t it make sense that if I qualified in advance, I should be able to take advantage of all the planning time I’ve got? How about some specific info so I can get things lined up? Travel packages, hotel deals, etc?
On the www.honolulu2005.com site, it says the entry fee for the race is $200! I’m wondering if the money I paid USAT last year covers this entry fee? I really hope I didn’t pay them all that money for some silly race singlet and jacket. Can someone help explain to me what that money got me?
Someone please help me with this…I’m trying not to be frustrated with my governing body, but obviously there are issues if I’m on the team and have no idea what is going on.
