[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does this matter? The only difference between A and B is when the meet is. You swim your race and get a time. [/quote] It matters for a few reasons. If you don’t race an event in an A meet, you won’t get a seed time for that event at divisionals in NVSL. So you’ll automatically go in a slower heat. Which tends to make you slower, which could mean you might not make an all-star cut. Also, if you never swim in an A meet, you can’t swim in Divisionals at all. Finally, you have fewer opportunities to drop time and qualify for Divisionals in an event if you don’t swim it twice a week. So there are opportunities for swimmers that could be taken away if bias enters the coach’s seeding decisions. Every child should have equal opportunity to participate at A meets, based on the times they can swim.[/quote]
