[quote=Anonymous]We live outside of the DMV. Girls varsity season is in the fall while the boys season is in the winter. In our area, girls attend high school practice and not club practice. School practice at my daughter's scho is 2 hours after school and is tougher than club practice. Girls in neighboring schools may have longer practices but they also do not attend club swimming. One interesting thing about our area is that school swim is not exclusively dominated by club swimmers. While the majority of the top swimmers are also on a club team there are are a few who did club when younger and can use that technique base plus the fitness base of varsity practices to do well regionally. One tall boy last year was able to make a state cutoff in 50 free that way. There is a girl in a nearby school who almost has a state cut time for 50 free. The state qualifying times here are between class 5 and class 6 Virginia cut times for comparison.[/quote]
