What are your thoughts about teams combining for out of LMSC meets (not nationals) and not competing as the same team within the LMSC.

  • Jim, Phew! I thought I was in trouble when I saw your reply!! :) I e-mailed Dr. Miller and asked how I could get involved to look at changing this, if it's even possible. It's my understanding that the small, medium, and large divisions have been done away with. I thought that they were just having combined 1st-10th from now on. I thought, if that were the case, now would be a good time to look at club vs. superteam (when it does get a definition!) You asked a lot of the questions that I've been thinking about too. I kind of see it as a puzzle and I think it would be fun to see if there's a way to solve it. How do I view that attachment? :) Meg, It's the population of swimmers that matters. ;) Actually then our teams are probably proportionate to total population, so I'm not sure your point (our team is probably really small then given the total population!) Fritz, I don't, and I'm sure my team doesn't either, want to be the poster child for anything. I don't think it's that simple. I mention the size and cohesiveness because that seems to be one of the things that people debating this have latched onto. We are a large club team, not a SUPERTEAM by my defintion (that no one agrees with :) )
