[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omg, they probably are trying to fill their team and is this the only way they can.

All fair, and perhaps NVSL should put an equitable process in place for exactly those circumstances. [/quote]

That sounds complicated and would open up a can of worms.[/quote]
It really shouldn’t though. The ability to use swim team only memberships should be limited to those pools who otherwise can’t fill lanes at an A meets. Establish a threshold for roster size and all pools who can’t meet the minimum roster size are able to use swim team only members. [/quote]

Except that teams that want to cheat will cheat if given any wiggle room. All of a sudden there’s now tryouts and little Larla with her legal but slow 50 free “isn’t ready” for the team. Better fill that spot instead with a year round phenom…[/quote]
It would be pretty obvious if a pool that previously had no trouble filling lanes all of a sudden was appealing to the league to be allowed to use swim team only memberships because of low roster numbers. You can also set a division cut off where this rule only applies to pools in divisions x-y because if you can’t fill lanes the chance that you’re in an upper division is slim to none.[/quote]
