[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn’t fair but that’s the rule. I’m sure those who think it’s fair also think it’s fair when newly 19 year old division 1 swimmers finish a full year of college training, and then return home to swim against kids who were 14 years old a few weeks ago. Clearly, that’s fair, too. [/quote] It is 7-8 weeks of summer swimming, just relax. I’m so surprised people are thinking about fairness with such a short, only for fun, activity. The pools don’t even have blocks and the distances are a joke, and there is a mixed age relay; just have your kid enjoy it and focus on improving their times. Who even examines other kids’ ages that closely? And yeah, in the VERY unusual circumstance where a D1 swimmer with a summer birthday came back and did summer swimming the kids on our team would be psyched to see them, nbd. I can’t imagine someone getting seriously upset about this. [/quote]
