[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You also have to keep in mind that a lot less girls than boys have achieved the 11-12 JO cut in the 100 free too. As of the most recent SR update, 51 11-12 girls have the 100 free JO cut vs. 101 11-12 boys. There are also many 11 year olds in both groups thus highlighting the overarching point that even those who are a year or more below than maximum age have ample opportunity to qualify for JOs (or other similar meets throughout the year). [/quote] New poster: you’re missing the point. NO ONE is claiming an issue with all 11 year olds making an 11-12 year old cut. It’s an issue with kids who are a few days or weeks into 11 years olds swimming against girls who are essentially done with puberty at nearly 13. It’s those few kids. [/quote] Next year will be their time to shine. Both of them will be fine. [/quote]
