[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kids aren't good, you can take a vacation.  If your kids are good, expect people to give you the side eye if you skip meets. [/quote]
 :roll: That’s ridiculous. If anything there will be parents glad their kid then has a chance at A meets. We had club kids skip meets for PVS LC meets and no one looked sideways at those kids. [/quote]

PVS LC meets were always on a different day than summer swim meets last year. They did that intentionally so they wouldn’t screw up summer swim. [/quote]
The last Saturday meet conflicted with PVS LC champs. The 2 PVS LC Opens were on Sundays only, but there were other PVS LC meets that happened on Saturdays and Sundays.[/quote]

Are you thinking of All-Stars? I know that conflicted with the LC championship [/quote]
12U LC champs were July 14-17, the last summer team meet was July 16.[/quote]

But it was local and Saturday events didn’t start until 3pm, intentionally well after NVSL meets would end. Events the other days started in the morning. Our club had a few swimmers going to the PV meet,  but all first went to the NVSL meet in the morning [/quote]

We were one of the families that did both. Depending on your events, you could only do both if you left NVSL early. There was no way to do both and make the warm up for the LC meet, inc eating lunch and driving there. For us, we stayed through backstroke but missed all other events and relays. Many good swimmers had the same issue, however so it probably evened out most teams. [/quote]

My kid also swam both, but did not miss any events.  Swam the last event of the meet, actually (a relay).  We are in a different league, though. [/quote]
