[quote=Anonymous]I have a DC with September birthday . But even at times I think it’s absurd in certain ways especially I have a friend whose DC birthday is May 31st . I understand the summer swim team and rules .

But it’s kind of absurd that boy who just turned 11 on May 31st was swimming against 11-12 where the 12 year old turned 13 on June 6th. I think it’s almost 2 years of age difference. We can be sportive and accept it. But the only thing not able to tolerate is 13 year olds parents bragging about the win.

If you expect other parents to be sportive then you also behave as one . It’s not like your so called 12 is 12 , he is  13. If real swim happened with 13-14 then true Level can be seen.

I would say it’s better that we have summer swim league only  for summer birthday children and they can all truly compete. Everyone else could just do it as recreation swim . Then we all could see the true level. Because summer birthday  swimmers are always winning and on top as they are racing with children younger than them. [/quote]
