[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Fun" in quotes is right.[/quote] Unless you have a child who is gunning for particular times to make the higher level competitions, these meets are not fun the way that summer swim is. If they make friends with kids on their team, it can be fun to hang out together. Pre-covid they would play games, share snacks, and talk. That is probably going to be harder if they're enforcing distancing. Generally speaking though, they're sitting there for 2-3hrs and swim for a handful of minutes. You won't find the pep rally type atmosphere with team cheers or whatever. If this works for your kid, it's a great lifetime sport, but understand going in that it can be much more of a grind than summer swim or sports with shorter games and more rah-rah.[/quote] thanks for this insight. My kid has one friend on the team but aside from this doesn’t know anyone. [/quote]
