[quote=Anonymous]We had similar issues last year in our first summer swim (MCSL), both kids under 10. We never really got a lot of great feedback from the coaches as to the DQ reasons. You can pull the exact reason from swimtopia or the MCSL results, but even then there's sometimes some jargon, like in breast stroke, hands beyond hipline, or incomplete stroke cycle. We ended up putting both kids in year round swim (which they were both excited to do) and this summer they didn't DQ once. Summer swim is really about getting "everyone" to a semblance of legality, so there's just sometimes not enough time to get to everyone. Ideally, if your swimmer comes 1x to every M-F practice after the meet in which the DQ happened, it's certainly reasonable to expect some to be spent on that. I encourage you to bring it up to your team rep though, especially if other parents are also feeling lost about their children's performance. [/quote]
