[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]

At our pool, the work on the kids with all the strokes but not to the extent where they will definitely get every kid legal in every stroke. If they need an 8 and under girl to swim fly and your kid is close, they may work with her. If they have a really strong group of kids in the age group, they may not. [/quote]
