[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are hearing rumors some big clubs aren’t attending this year and were also just told we could bring more swimmers than originally planned. Which clubs are definitely attending? Who dropped out?[/quote]

There are not many big clubs at this meet.  The big clubs (RMSC, NCAP, Machine, etc) all attend NCI and Turkey Claus.[/quote]

NCI pulls in a lot of teams from out of state and many qualifying cuts are faster than senior champs.  It certainly takes a faster time to final.  It’s a really fast meet. [/quote]

NCI is just an incredibly fast meet.  Thankfully Turkey Claus, sport Fair winter classic, etc exist for the not incredibly fast. [/quote]
To be clear, there are plenty of swimmers at the Winter Classic that are fast enough to swim at the NCI.  Their teams just don't participate so they cannot, even though they have the cuts.  NCI is unquestionably a much faster meet, but it's inaccurate to say that the Winter Classic is for swimmers that are "not incredibly fast".  [/quote]

100%! Just looking at one event (50 back) in 9-10 girls, York, Makos, and OCCS all have 9-10 girls who are as fast as girls on NCAP and RMSC. York has the two fastest 9-10 girls in all of PVS by miles. (We swim at NCAP, but huge props to York. If we lived closer, I might change to York. They look like they are a true team.)[/quote]
I just looked at the 9-10 girls 50 back and there is a York girl in 1st, NCAP 2nd, a York girl in 3rd who will be 11 in a month, and then a bunch of RMSC swimmers. I’m not seeing the domination you’re describing by York. The do have a great current 10 year old girl, but she is 1 month from being middle of the road as an 11-12. You would expect a 10 month 11 year old swimmer to be at the top of the 9-10 group.[/quote]

I think the three York swimmers (9-10 girls) would win have a chance to win all NCI events, so I was agreeing that other teams have swimmers who easily could compete, and even win, events at NCI.[/quote]

Where are you seeing what kids are swimming at this years WC? Not being snarky— curious where this is since my kid is swimming. [/quote]
