Does anyone have feedback on this location? My DC will turn 15 during next season. I think they’d be in the top group. Thanks in advance!

It's a small location with very limited training sessions. The top group, Gold AM, is pretty full with only 3-4 graduating this summer. Unless your child has really fast times, they will probably be put in Gold Prep, which is in the afternoons.

Thanks. Any feedback on the quality of the coaching in both groups, culture, results, etc.? Would you recommend it? A change would be a big deal for my swimmer, so I want to make sure it’s worth it for them.
They have Futures cuts, sounds like that’s not fast enough for AM?

I don’t have a swimmer there but I can tell you a Futures level swimmer is definitely fast enough for the top group. For whatever reason people like to act like no other kid could possibly fit in a group, but room will always be made for a Futures level swimmer, especially one that is only 15.

I’ve heard good things about Tysons. I would look at some meet results and make sure there are swimmers close in age that are also close in times. Tyson has solid coaches but make sure there is a good core group of kids to train with.

Agree. Not sure if your swimmer is male or female but they have a great group of girls.

With futures cuts, your kid should fit right into their top group. You can also email the site coaches- jeremy and/or john- and ask to try out a practice.

Marymount now.

The practices are there, but the group he coaches is technically classified as Tysons Gold PM.

Then that changed during this season, because they are still listed in the Tysons practice schedule and John appears on the coaching staff list.

Marymount now.

This must have changed recently. The group is still listed in the Tysons practice schedule for this season, and John is in the coaching staff list for the site.

OP. Thanks, all. So there is no longer an AM group at Tysons? We are outside the beltway, so couldn’t swing MU, unfortunately.
