[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DS (7) loved summer swim and wanted to do winter swim this year. We have been going every Sunday but it is starting to feel like a waste of time. The coach only pays attention to the very best (older) kids, the groups are incongruent as far as ability which means they ended up in a big traffic jam even if they are only swimming a 25 at a time, and the pool is 20 minutes one way for a 45 minute practice. It seems very disorganized. Is this a typical experience? [/quote] This seems like a waste of time. I have two year round swimmers and I think a group lesson with a swim school would be a step up from what you are describing. At least your child would be getting instruction instead of being stuffed in a lane. They probably don’t have enough lane space or coaches to separate kids into manageable groups. My kids swim 3-4 per lane and their last team swam no more than 6. After 6, there is far more waiting than swimming. [/quote]
