OP here, We would win, without moving swimmers up, but we do it anyway.  I don't get the reasoning.  [/quote]

Are you sure you would win?  I think a lot of parents say this but don't understand scoring a meet.  If they still could win, they are probably trying to get more opportunities for swimmers in different age groups to swim.[/quote]

Yes, I understand scoring a meet, and yes we would still win.  EVERY time they do this.  I guess they think what if??  But they don't think about the hurt feelings of a kid that expects to swim and finds out they won't because of this strategy.  Or how the family is turned off to swim team.  Or how the other kids in the age group feel swimming with the youngster who gets cheered on to beat their own team mates.

I must not be cut throat enough.  I don't think it is necessary  [/quote]

Have you thought about joining a smaller, lower division team?  Large teams have a lot of competing interests.  It is tough to manage it.[/quote]
