[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s useful to review the turns in the beginning of season for 15 min some sessions,  but the description fits “learn to do the turns, starts etc.” workout for an 8& under minis group. Certainly a 10 yo won’t get anywhere on such routine. I’ve been in such situation with my swimmer as well (luckily there were A times on record, so we are able to switch mid season without wasting too much time). Can totally understand your frustration with driving for nothing - good luck with the meet and the meeting.[/quote]

Thank you for your advice. How did you go about making the switch?[/quote]

What area are you in?  Based on 9-year old times, was your child BB/B/A?  Some clubs have minimums; some use it to sort practices.  There are a lot of clubs in the area, and I agree that based on everything, it is time to move on.[/quote]

BB times in 10 and under, swimming as 8-9 year old. First meet is in October, no times on record this year as of yet. Based on what I’ve seen her do in practices she will likely have between AA and AAA times as 9-10 year old still swimming 10 and under. I can’t find any accurate reasoning for the kids they moved up. Some didn’t place or qualify for anything all last season, had B times as 10-11 year olds and they moved up to 5 days training. I am not in your area.[/quote]
