[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind that nvsl rules don’t allow tech suits under age 12.

We our team jumps around divisions 10-13 ish and we have no tech suit team rule. But also no one is wearing tech suits to a meets because they are expensive. [/quote]
NVSL doesn’t allow bonded seams for 12&U (neither does USA Swimming). That’s the definition of technical suits in rule book. NVSL does allow kneeskins and other fast suits for 12&U, as long as they’re the approved kind. [/quote]

This. Our 12&Us wear kneeskins for relay carnival, divisionals and relay/ individual all stars.  If DCs are going for a record, they wear them to a B meet. I am very much against them wearing kneeskins/ fast suits to A meets. [/quote]

This seems backwards. Wearing a fast suit to a B meet raises sportsmanship issues.

I don’t agree with “going for a record.” This means “if you are close to a record we will give you an advantage.” As a referee the minute the rule book is different for different swimmers you are in for a problem.

Also we are MCSL where you can qualify for All Stars at any A meet, so restrictions on suits would fall differently on different swimmers in the league. [/quote]
