Thanks for posting!  Can I ask a dumb question. I have a 9 year old who turns 10 in January. Does he have a “bad” birthday for this? Like - this year is his only year to qualify as 10 & under because if he does it next year - even if he swam it while 10 - he would be 11 by the time of the meet?

Sorry it this question does make sense. But I hope you understand what I’m trying to ask. Thanks![/quote]

Yeah, my daughter has a late December birthday and her swim friend has a late march birthday. The December birthday is a little frustrating when it comes to JOs. The March birthday friend has a sweet deal![/quote]

sorry, I am not following - which month is the "best" birthday then, what are the rules for age, is it calendar based ie calendar year, or is it how old you are on the day of the actual meet? So in theory you would change age groups mid swim season? Thanks[/quote]
The “best” birthday depends on what meet you’re focusing on. For JOs, yeah a birthday in January or February is not ideal. But for say summer swim and the summer long course meets, a spring birthday is not ideal. My DC has a May birthday and while that is fine for JOs, it is not great for summer swim/long course.

Agree with this completely.  Whatever you are focused on you want the birthday to be up against it.  Generally it does make a difference.

Also 10&U is usually the easiest cut times.  It gets tougher for 11-12 and really difficult for 13 and over.[/quote]
