[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes.  It’s not at all limited.  There were kids who swam at Christmas champs who are swimming the same strokes next weekend at Riley eaten.  I have no idea why anyone would want to do this but Christmas champs needs to add the same language as Turkey clause, nft times and you can’t swim at all if you have more than 4 cuts for ncap or Riley eaten.

I concur with this 100%. I think coaches who allowed this really need to reflect on how they missed opportunities to prioritize kids who didn’t have cuts for the other meets. By letting swimmers with multiple qualifying meets do the same strokes again, it effectively took away finals opportunities from kids on their own clubs who could have gained valuable experience.

Coaches from multiple teams allowed this at Champs yesterday. Just think about the swimmers who placed in the 21–25 range — many of them might have had a real shot at finals if those lanes were available. That experience matters, especially for developing swimmers who don’t yet have those cuts.

Some food for thought.[/quote]
