[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If swimmers do not have sectionals cuts, they should not be in G1[/quote]

That is awfully snobby.  Are you saying that if a kid is fast and can handle the workouts they should be shut out?  What if they are only fast in one stroke and struggle at practices in anything else?  What if they are .01 from a cut?  Deciding placement on one factor is stupid.[/quote]

Because they are 13???

If the swimmer is fast, then why don’t they have sectional cuts?[/quote][/quote]
For the purposes of this thread about Tyson’s/MU (although it applies to other sites too) you can be 13 and in Silver 1, there is no issue with anyone being 13 and not having a sectional cut. It’s when you are 15 and haven’t hit a sectional cut yet that you find yourself looking at Gold 2. [/quote]

Incorrect information.  [/quote]
Not really sure what’s incorrect. There are 13 year olds in Silver 1 at MU that don’t have sectional cuts. There are 13 year olds at our site without sectional cuts that are in our highest Silver group. At our site when you are 15, if you don’t have the sectional cuts needed to go to Gold 1 then you go to Gold 2. [/quote]

That may be your site bit that has not been true at MU.[/quote]
Are you saying that MU takes kids without sectional cuts to Gold 1? And that is not going to happen anymore with the Tysons/MU merger at the Gold level? If that’s the case, that’s not a bad thing. I’m guessing the club wants their Gold 1 groups to be similarly competitive across the sites instead of West, GP and Claude Moore dominating. [/quote]
