2014 US "World Championships" Spearfishing Team

The 2014 World Spearfishing Championship
Peru

The USOA just recently completed the final stage of qualifying a team for the 2014 World Championships. The qualifying process is a cumulative total from the 2012 & 2013 US Nationals.

Team USA 2014

1. Dan Silveria
2. Harold Gibson
3. Alex Reynaud

As well, for the first time ever, the USA will be hosting the Spearfishing Pan Am games in Miami from September 7 -14, 2013. The Pan Am games is where the US will compete against 7 other nations to earn a spot at the Worlds Competition. Because the US is hosting, it will give the US an opportunity to host a World Competition in the future.

This is a huge step for the US and for the people who dedicate a huge amount of time to define the competitive processes for spearfishing.

We appreciate the support,

Go Team USA

Re: 2014 US "World Championships" Spearfishing Team

Will there be a live stream of anything cool like that? Nothing would be cooler than to hook up a live stream from a GoPro on a diver for everyone to watch

As more information is gathered and organized, I will continue to update this post. I believe that live scoring will be online for the Pan Am Games. I should know more in a week or so.

Lol if the championships are in any way like the way that I spearfish, that ish would be more boring than watching golf. "Oh look he's diving down (30 secs later), Oh he's coming up." followed by 3 minutes of floating looking at nothing.
