[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many LC Meets does your team/practice group put on the schedule + when does your pool switch practice to LC?
- Our 12Us only do 2 LC meets and practice doesn’t switch to LC lanes until school is out (after all but championship LC meets are over). [/quote]

Us, as well. Perhaps the same club.  I know some clubs never get to practice LC.

I think NCAP gets to sooner than most and more of them.[/quote]

NCAP Burke only attends 2 LC meets and doesn’t practice in a long course pool until after school ends. I think some of the NCAP West sites have LC practice pretty early in Spring though, and it seems West and Tysons have quite a bit more LC meets than Burke. So it is really all over the place. I wonder if the teams that practice at GMU and St James get an earlier LC practice. Without having access to a LC pool, it seems the first meet is really just practice on how to race 50 meter laps.

The high performing 13 and over groups at NCAP West use the Freedom Center to do LC practice, I don’t know when that starts though. Having access to a LC pool is half the battle since there are far fewer LC pools. Meet choices also depend on the practice group at some of these sites. I have an older swimmer and 2 of their pre PVS LC champs meets are super sectionals and NCAP Elite, they do not attend May Magic or some of the other meets that are listed as options for our site.
