[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Here are some realistic check-points: Is he a year-round swimmer? Has he done 100 IM before? Does he have all-star times in at least 2 of the 4 events? If the answer is yes to at least 2 of the above questions and he actually wants to do it, then yes, see what the coach thinks. [/quote] Other than “has he done it before?” I don’t see how any of those are requirements. Can you explain?[/quote] These aren't requirements. Even "has he done it before" isn't a requirement... these are points of consideration as to readiness for 100IM. If you want to set the child up for success, then these are realistic aspects to consider as to whether or not they should try as an 8U. But, if you want them to be possibly overwhelmed, frustrated and maybe even embarrassed by the experience, then just proceed blindly as you see fit. [/quote]
