[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely he can, and we have many kids that do so regularly. Summer swim teams are primarily for fun. There's competition, but it's not usually that hardcore. He DOES need to be able to actually swim though, obviously. Can he get up and down a lap pool without grabbing onto the railings/lane lines? Also, because we've had this come up at my pool recently. Make sure he's willing to wear jammers/the swim team suits. (snug fitting shorts). Doing swim team wearing baggy trunks is usually a terrible idea, if it's allowed at all. He'll need to be comfortable with the idea of wearing a competition style suit. [/quote]
