i know the age up date for meters is 12/31 of the given year.
has it always been that way?
(mostly i need to know if in 1997 the age up date would have been 12/31/97 or the date of the meet...)
thanks!
I believe that I will be competing at the same listed age in Austin as I did in Federal Way. My BD is in early May and has taken some strange beatings over the years.
In 1976, the SCY nationals were in Mission Viejo and AAU Masters swimming still used the age group style of determination--- the first day of the meet. I was ineligible because my birthday was on the second day of the meet (this was years before the 19 year olds were eligible for nationals). I never thought to ask if I would have been eligible if I had entered only events on the second and third days. Hmmm.
