[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about relays, divisionals etc ? [/quote]

No relay carnival (or relay all stars) and divisionals is still planned as three dual meets[/quote]

When would the divisional meets be if they are 3 dual meets?  The MCSL calendar lists a single date for all star relays and the regular window for divisionals.
Our pool just announced no restrictions.  I would assume everything is on.[/quote]

DIVISIONALS 7/24 as calendar shows, but instead of 6 teams at one pool, they will be at 3 pools like a regular meet week.
I’ve heard it will be paired by dual meet results rank 1&2, 3&4, 5&6

The email said no relay carnival and they are looking into having individual all stars split across that weekend.[/quote]
I wish they would have divisionals as two 3-team meets.  That way you have a full pool (2 swimmers per team per event) and it feels more like a “big” meet without being crazy crowded like it usually is.  With the 2-team approach it will be smaller than a normal dual meet.[/quote]

Kids under 12 cannot be vaccinated.  It makes zero sense to risk kids health so you can have you so called normal.[/quote]
What a novel take that you haven’t expressed a million times already in various DCUM threads :roll: [/quote]

Its pretty sad that the competitive swim parents who need their kids to win for their bragging rights don't care about the rest of our swim kids.[/quote]m

Huh?  The whole reason I want a summer season for my kids is they aren’t on a competitive team.  This is there only chance to learn stroke swimming unless I am able to enroll them in expensive lessons.  Please don’t pretend to know everyone’s thinking on this.  [/quote]

County has cheap lessons and you don’t learn much on summer swim team.  Or, that is our experience.  Your kids don’t get to the a meets as they are dominated by the year round kids who only show up to win.  It’s a world you don’t see yet.  Your kids should be getting those meet opportunities since they go to practices.  [/quote]

I have actually experienced summer swim and maybe it will hit differently but we thought our kids got a lot out of swim team.  I am not expecting them to swim in college but rather have a neighborhood team that is fun where they learn.  I can’t swim a legal butterfly and thought it was cool that they can.  We have a pool with a smaller team and pretty good coaching so maybe we are not the norm.  And, it was actually fun to see the really good year round swimmers who have worked really hard win stuff.  My kids focused on their times and didn’t put this much thought into it.  I viewed it as a pretty cheap, safe fun activity for my kids to do every day.  [/quote]
