[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s nearly impossible to step up from BB straight to AA-AAA but she could be well an A now, after summer. You need to have her first meet results to discuss with current team. But if she already had all BB as a 9 yo (which is strong) then you don’t need to wait for new meet to start looking for back-up options. You can already find a transfer option and have it in your sleeve when you go to that meeting [/quote]

There are around only 3 seconds in her strong races between her times last December during short course season and AA times. It isn’t hard at this age to knock off 3 seconds. I’ve timed her during their fun relays during practice and she is there.[/quote]m

There are no such events in USA swimming 10&under girls times where a difference between BB and AA would be 3 sec. it’s about 5 sec for all 50s ( 7 sec for breast); about 15-20 sec for 100s
You are either from another country or you are looking at single age standards for 9yo, which are not quite the same as 9-10 age group standards [/quote]

I am looking at 2017-2020 Standards 10 & Under girls for SCM. For example 50 free, BB min is 38.89. DD’s time is 36.17. A min is 34.69. AA min is 33.29. From DD’s time to AA min is around 3 seconds.

OK, but what are her 100 and 200 free times?  Maybe she's not being moved up because she has no endurance.  There are lots of kids who can swim a fast 50 in summer swim, but anything beyond a 50 and they hit a major wall.[/quote]
