[quote=Anonymous]We used to be at a Division 8-10 pool and people regularly took vacations during the season and it was very normal and other kids just swam at the A meet. We are at a D1 pool now and A meet kids don't miss. I have heard stories of kids being sick and getting pressured to swim anyway if they are top swimmers. It's much more intense. I know families with older swimmers who also play a fall sport at school and the season starts early August. They just don't take any vacations over the summer. There are families who prioritize their kids sports above any other activity and that's their choice to make.[/quote]
