Hey, moving to the area and trying to compare practice times (which seem published) and pricing of the top two swim groups for my two kids. Noting a lot of clubs do not make it easy to find this information (I guess if you have to ask the price you cannot afford it). |
RMSC is generally considered the ‘cheap’ option near us (MoCi). For older kids, the top two groups are $3100 and $4350 at our pool. For younger kids it’s $2500 and $3000. That includes fees for most meets. |
^ you can also get a pretty substantial discount for being an official |
Okay, Potomac Marlins (Alexandria and Fairfax outlying areas) is pretty inexpensive small club. Senior Gold is $3800 Senior Prep Gold is $3500 So not bad for 11 month programs (look at NCAP!!!) |
NCAP is like $5900 - getting very close to the 6K mark. |
NCAP Gold 1 at GP is $6,200 and NCAP Gold 1 at West (Vint Hill) is $6,000. The Gold 1 training groups generally are for HS kids that are looking to swim D1 and there are usually certain cuts you need to get into the group (you can’t just age into it). |
i don't believe this applies to Rockville site |
The Gold AM and PM groups at Tysons are $5800 for 6 practices/week plus dry land (offered 3x/wk IIRC). Silver 1 (top group for ages 10-14) is 5 practices/wk for $4400. Older kids who typically swim HS but don’t have cuts for the top group or want less intensity do Gold Prep, 4x/wk (3 during HS season) for 9 months, cost is $3150. |
Most of the pricing is easily found online. At less for all the clubs I looked at. |
Here is a list of the area clubs with links you can use to find prices.

You have to dig for NCAP pricing on various sites.
Does anyone know York? Cannot find it. |

Rv Rays has the best deal. Less than 400 per year. Hall of Fame coaching. MCSL record holders to train with. |
You may want to look too, though, at whether meet fees are included in the total or not. Those add up pretty quickly... |
Ignore this poster OP, they are a troll. |
