[quote=Anonymous]My daughter (just 11) has been swimming summer swim since age 5 and year round swim since 8. Nothing too competitive during the winter, just ymca. No meets. She swims 2-3 times per week, depending on what other activities she is doing. Problem? She is so slow and it’s really squashing her love for the sport. She’s legal in all 4 strokes but girls new to swimming are faster. She is very committed to summer swim, goes to all the practices, etc. and is desperate to make A meets this summer which is unlikely as she is ranked 8th or 9th in most strokes after yesterday’s time trails. I would love to help her. She’s long and lean but not very strong. Our summer team coaches are great but tend to put the focus on their training on the fast kids. Any ideas for individualized coaches or swim training where her strokes can be evaluated for efficiency?  Would also love any other ideas you may have. She’s very self motivated and totally devoted to summer swim so has the time to put in to further developing herself. Thanks! [/quote]
