Instant Replay in Swimming? Might Be So According to SwimmingWorld.TV Interview

PHOENIX, Arizona, October 6. IS instant replay in swimming's future?

In another exclusive embedded video interview in the October digital issue of Swimming World Magazine, Carol Zaleski, past president of USA Swimming and current vice chairman of the FINA Technical Committee, discusses the possible use of cameras in officiating at major international competitions. It appears that FINA is on the verge of determining what role, if any, cameras will play in helping officials to make the right call. With that being said, Zaleski explains in this exclusive interview that an underwater camera set-up was tested out at USA Swimming's National Championships held in Indianapolis.
