Never got into shaving even in age group. I don't believel it makes you feel the water any better. L Val doesn't shave either from an article I read in Swim Magazine But guys have a lot more body hair than women, so it may help them feel the water better. I don't even shave my legs, because mom told me as a kid that you would have to shave all the time once you start it. However, I think that maybe children should not shave. I read reports of 9 to 10 year boys shaving in age group swimming, this I think is too young, they even have less body hair than I do and they should enjoy the sport, in my day no boy under 12 years old shaved.
