[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have experience or know anything about it? This is after kid moves up from pro 2. They say quarterly meet opportunities are provided but what does this mean? Is it a real swim team or are different goldfish franchise swim force teams just "competing" against each other? Is it good prep for a real swim team?[/quote]

we had never made to swim force. we started when my kid was 4 all the way up to pro2 after pandemic. then my wife noticed there's no improvement for a year and a half and the site swim force never took off, so she signed up for county stroke and turn and we stopped doing goldsfish. then joined summer team. all in all, but all that helped was endurance. breast and fly were still not legal. i had to coach kid myself for breast/fly so he eventually made to a year around club around 9 yo. but you know, its fairly difficult for a 9 yo joins a serious swim club.

looking back, you don't need to do goldfish for swim team. if we were doing it again, i would have probably only let him swim with gold fish for one or two years then with summer team at age 6 with some private lessons and join a real swim club before 8, starting at mini.[/quote]
