[quote=Anonymous] He'll be 8u for summer swim but will move up to the next age group for club swim next fall/winter/spring. I think all of the clubs have some sort of try-out or evaluation for prospective swimmers. If he swims A meets in the summer he'll have some times that are publicly available as well that the prospective club could see/reference. I know for RMSC these try outs are over the summer, usually one in June and another in July, you'll need to check w/ the club(s) you are interested in what their process is and when the try outs are. In terms of who makes the cut and who doesn't, that depends somewhat on age - a younger kid(5,6,7) won't need to necessarily know all the strokes or have that much endurance but older kids will - at 9 your son would be expected to know/be legal in all 4 strokes and show some level of minimal endurance in terms of being able to sustain effort for hour long practice.
