[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids make All Stars at the top and bottom of each age group, so I don’t have a personal stake in this. But I will say that the other kids who make Divisionals and All Stars are majority “older than the age group” kids. [b]Which means normal non-star age-appropriate kids are not getting to swim those meets. [/b] I would be in favor of a rule change for that reason. Swim your actual age. [/quote]Every kid who competes is normal and age appropriate. They all meet the cut off. [/quote] Age appropriate like the PP said. If you are swimming 11-12, you should not be 13. They are not the age that they are swimming. They generally are a grade ahead and they are older. Parents don't want to change it with the summer birthdays because now their child would have to swim against kids their own age and would not do as well. [/quote]
