[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, kids will work their way up the time standards over the course of two years in the age group. Where they begin and end varies widely, of course. Most of the top swimmers are hitting some AAA+ by the middle of their age range. So like 11 turning 12. My kid and some others in his group had some 11-12 AA times before they turned 11 (around 10.5) and some 13-14 AA times around age 12 to 12.5.[/quote] I agree with this. My swimmer got to AA in their best events by the end of SC season when they were about to turn 12. This summer they have gotten some AAA LC times and I would expect they will start hitting AAAs once SC winter champs roll around, with a shot at AAAA in their best stroke. For girls the differences between the 11-12 standards and the 13-14 standards aren’t as steep as they are for the boys, so an 11-12 girl with AAA times already is knocking on the door of AA 13-14 times.[/quote]
