[quote=Anonymous]We have a new 5 yo who has a strong doggy paddle, the ability to dive (with good form) to the bottom of the deep end, and the ability to float on her back. She doesn't yet have a front crawl (at all) and isn't confident in her backstroke. What should we be doing to get her ready to try for summer swim team? Is it reasonable for her to gain enough skills by next spring given fewer winter swimming opportunities? We're not fussed either way, but we do think she's like swim team and it seems like a good way to keep building her skills. Right now she's signed up for Arlington P&R's Fin program, but I'm not sure how much progress she'll make in 30 minute group lessons. What should we be doing?[/quote]
