(Repeat attendees measure less than half.) 2.6%

Analysis: Key Issues Identified 1. Ranking and validity system is divisive 2. Only intense, high-end events are sanctioned 3. Sanctioning process unstructured No quality assurance for pilots Potential USHPA liability 4. No USHPA support for meet organizers (Slide information taken from Fall, 2008 CWG presentation) Board Directive: Review current system and recommend revisions in support of strategic goals including development of new system for regional and national sanctioned events
