[quote=Anonymous]We have been on two different teams throughout my child’s swim life. The first initially was in D4/5, but it was a small team with zero bench. Several kids aged out, while some talented swim families moved, and losing every week by 150 points was miserable. The team dropped substantially. While this new division was a much better fit, for club swimmers, it did not tend to push the kids. My daughter was winning by half the pool length, but her times were not competitive with similar club swimmers because she never had to work too hard in meets.

We are now at a larger team in a top (D 1-3) division. The enthusiasm for the team is markedly and positively different, and the kids swim FAST due to the competition at meets. Further, as I posted in another thread, we have a decent number of non-club swimmers in our A-meets. Still, the majority of the team swims B Meets. My daughter is an A-meet swimmer, so I’m not sure what children who only swim B-meets feel about the team’s division and their opportunities.[/quote]
