[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If birthday cut-off were at the end of the season, the rosters would stay the same throughout and you wouldn't have 9, 11, and 13 years old winning the top prizes at the end of season meet for the respective 8&u, 9-10, and 11-12 age groups.[/quote] Right, you would have kids who are 8 for most of the season being forced to swim 9-10, though they are neither 9 nor 10 on that date. In either scenario, you have kids who swim in meets in one age group when their actual age is not one of the numbers of that age group. Comments like this make clear that this whole idea is primarily about parents who wish to advantage their specific children, not fidelity of age groups. [/quote]
