[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does it work? If you even get into a summer pool club do they teach your kids swimming or do you have to be already “legal” ? Kids are 5,7,8. [/quote] Usually they have to be able to swim 25m without drowning, but some pools require more and some require less. You don't usually need to be legal. Unless there is a minis program, the amount of instruction will be limited. Practices are big groups with lots of kids in a lane. Get a private instructor if you want more instruction.[/quote] Ok so it’s not as demanding as year round swim. And they teach you how to do strokes other than free style so they can compete?[/quote] Not really, unless they are in the mini program. For most pools anyway. If you want to be on the team, your kid should at a minimum be able to do back and free legally. You need private lessons to learn the strokes. Many HS coaches offer them between practices.[/quote]
