[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he loves it, that’s a good reason to look for a program but I don’t have a specific recommendation now as we moved from the area. Agree that birthday is not a good reason to choose a sport, especially in swimming when there are meets throughout the year. [b]My son has the worst possible birthday for year round swimming[/b] but he is very good and while he does not get quite as much “glory” in the championship meets as an age grouper due to birthday, I think it’s probably good for his longer term development and having to hustle more to qualify “up” is advantageous in the long run. Honestly I would start with what is most convenient to where you live, then visit and get a feel for the vibe. I think it’s super important to keep it fun and light at that age. [/quote] Just curious, what is considered to be the "worst possible birthday for year round swimming"? Is it a fall birthday because never the oldest right before any champs meet? [/quote]
