[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In case people lost track of the original questions:
How are you approaching the balance between PVS Champs finals on Friday and Saturday’s divisionals? If your swimmer makes finals Friday night and also has a really early divisionals meet Saturday, will your swimmer scratch or swim Friday night? If the swimmer scratches Friday finals, are they banned from swimming the rest of LC Meet? Would love to hear from experienced parents who have juggled this and gain advice for 12U swimmers.[/quote]

If your kid signed up for Friday events at PVS age group champs and you think he/she will make finals then you should definitely encourage them to swim those events.  Granted it wasn't the same weekend last year, but the NVSL kids who made those finals had plenty of margin for error in qualifying for NVSL all-stars.  A little bit of extra rest isn't going to made a huge difference for swimmers at that level in a 50 meter race, particularly is the primary goal is to achieve an all-star qualifying time.  I mean so what if the top 12u swimmer is a little slow and ends up 5th overall at divisionals, they're still swimming the next weekend at all-stars if that's what you, and they, are worried about.[/quote]

My child has a chance to make PVS finals.  Seeded 19,20,21 (I think) in best three events.

Child is not ranked in the NVSL top 20 of any 50 stroke, and who knows about IM.  Will need to be at full strength- not fast enough sleepwalk into a top 18 time for All-stars.

Many of the kids that make finals will have no problem making all-stars. For some kids, that is not the case at all.    [/quote]
