[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why it isn’t just best times. If 2 kids have best times in 3-4 strokes, the coach should be determining which strokes those kids should swim in divisionals that give the best chance of getting the team points. The only way to keep it fair across the board is to be transparent with times and let the coaches decide. That’s the way it works at our pool. [/quote] I think for most leagues there are no team points awarded at divisionals. So it’s an entirely individual meet where the goal for most is to place as high as possible with the hope of making all stars. For most leagues only the times sw at divisionals matter for determining all stars. I agree that if points are on the line the coaches should pick the lineup. If it’s completely individual the swimmers should get to pick in ladder order. And the ladders should be available to everyone so it’s easy to see why the lineup is what it is.[/quote]
