[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on the sport. If it is one with only a handful of top competitors then you will have to compete at a regional or national level. Figure skating, gymnastics come to mind. Also - coaching is obviously a big factor. A high level competitor in whatever sport will eventually need high level coaching. But that factor has nothing to do with the locations of competitions/games - particularly in timed sports. You hit the time or you don’t. In a sport where judging is involved then you have to get seen by the right folks to advance. But, for a sport like swimming you need to hit the time cuts and you can do that at a high school meet. [/quote] Nope. You clearly don’t know anything about swimming. High school meets aren’t USA swim times.[/quote]
