[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are MCSL. You can swim in a B meet IF you are not swimming that event in an A meet. We love A meet swimmers who show up to B meets to cheer on the rest of their team trying very hard although it doesn't count for points. Our B meets are super fun for that reason. [/quote]

Similar, from another MCSL team.  You can swim in freestyle in a B meet if you swam it in an A meet but were not one of the top three finishers for our team.  For other events, you cannot swim them in the B meet if you scored a point in the preceding A meet, so the only way you can swim the same events is if you finish last in your event.  We often have kids who only swim A meets come and cheer at the B meets so ours are fun, too.

I'm glad we're not in NVSL.  I think it's poor sportsmanship to allow a kid who scores points in an A meet event to swim that same event at a B meet.[/quote]

[b]You can't in NVSL either[/b]. But only top three swimmers score points in A meets, so 4th and 5th could race again in addition to 6th.[/quote]

The NVSL doesn’t have rules that pertain to B meets. It’s up to the B meet league. For example, The Springfield-Burke league says if you swam the event on Saturday you can’t swim the same one Monday, but others say if you score points in the A you can’t swim it in the B. It varies. [/quote]

Back to add that some don’t belong to a B meet league.
