It was to bring it in line with the industry standard, but it is now slightly worse for those two pools (it could be argued that those times had an advantage before).
There was a ballot or agreement in line with USA Swimming rules on swimming in your gender assigned at birth if male, but a female can swim as a male.
A rule on when bid ins with seed times need to be exchanged.
A rule of clarification. Apparently some pool last year had an alternate on deck for Divisionals. There was a false start and they wanted to throw their alternate in. It became a thing. So there are no alternates at Divisionals (only ASR and IAS) so a false start is simply a DQ. Throwing some random kid would be advantageous to that team with the kid on deck for that (perhaps a chance to get that kid into IAS). The only fill the lane scenarios at Divisionals are scratches, not for DQs.
A few of these got slightly heated. We will see what the vote turned out to be on them.
Not really as they were never allowed to host Divisionals or relay carnival so times only impacted their internal rosters for meets and not the league as a whole.
And starting this year it will only impact 1 pool as KG has been redone and will not be meters.
the debate on divisional "alternates" was silly. No team is going to line kids up as alternates for divisionals. It is silly enough to see kids there for IAS and ASR, but at least there they get a ribbon for showing up.
