Jerry,
I do not agree (surprise).
My idea for flights was not for teams but for individual events. The flights would encourage more swimmer enthusiasm and buy in to the whole team thing, but I repeat myself.
You're admitting to stacking, which is THE reason why SUPERTEAMS and club teams SHOULD NOT be scord the same. We do not stack at WCM, we try to make relays out of the people who go. If we can make relays great, if not, oh well, we're not going recruiting. That is a fundamental difference in the way the teams are organized. So far as I know there are 2 30-34 women on my team going (and it's not a guarantee either of us can go until the last minute)- Kerry will have to deal with these decisions at the meet, not the weeks and months before recruiting!
Seven categories is worse than 1-10 in men, women, and combined. That's insane. You know people keep citing numbers to prove their points. Let's remember that statistics can be manipulated to say what you want them to say, especially when critical information is "omitted".
I still say 1-10 combined, SUPERTEAM and club (20 banners total)
or 1-3 combined, SUPERTEAM and club (6 banners total)
