[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For summer swim most teams are at suburban pools and country clubs. The only exception I have found are the Takoma Park DC Allstars, who swim in the Prince-Mont summer league.

For club swimming, the following use/have used pools in DC: NCAP (at GW pool, used to use AU too), SDS (at St.Alban's pool, used to use Jackson_Reed too), DC Wave (have used Jackson-Reed and Takoma).

It is very difficult for teams to get pool time in DC. I get the sense that most of the pools used in DC stopped letting clubs rent them during COVID, and it has been slow getting those slots back.[/quote]

Thank you, this is helpful. Follow up questions:

Anyone have experiences with the Takoma Park DC Allstars? I did find info about them online and will pursue it, but would love more info if people have it. That would still be a hike for us but much better than a suburban team.

Also, for people who have joined pools in the burbs in order to do summer swim or club swim -- any recommendations? Any that don't consistently have long waitlists? We are on the list for the PG pool but I feel like we'll never make it to the top. I've looked at the Adelphi pool as well, and I understand they will have a brand new facility next year? But that also means they come with sizable capital improvement fees, which I get, but it does add up![/quote]
