[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on the team and age groups- top division teams with top swimmers my guess is no, but lower division teams and kids in younger age groups yes. I think older kids care more and won't miss, younger kids/parents of young kids tend to not care as much. My kids have swum in A meets for the past 9 years and we only missed 1 A meet the very first year/before we knew our kid would make A meets. Now they would be very angry if we missed. [/quote] Why do top divisions and top swimmers not want to miss A meet once or twice? Are they afraid of losing their spots or potentially improving their times [/quote] No, they just really love summer swim, being part of the team, competing and the excitement of A meets. I also think many don't want to let their relays down. [/quote] Summer swim is super short. Missing 2 meets is a lot. [/quote]
