[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is a very odd rule. The assumption is that club swimmers have an advantage, but that is not universally true. My youngest used to swim winter club because his physical therapist recommends it. He tries his best, but it would be cruel to have him swim up an age group.[/quote] OP here... I totally agree. When the incident happened last weekend, it caused a ripple effect because then they were questioning the placements of other club swimmers on our team. The next child to race was a 11 year old club swimmer. They pulled her out also and said she should be swimming 13-15. The coach argued it and the kid and my daughter ended up swimming alone just to get times, and were put back into their respective age groups. The 11 year old girl, despite being a club swimmer, did not place top 10 for anything in the 11-12 category. Just because they swim all year doesn't necessarily mean they are better.[/quote]
