[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also make sure you understand what the pool means by pre-team. Our pool has a swim lesson program which is different from our mini program. Pre-team requires being able to swim 25m of freestyle and backstroke. It might not be pretty or legal, but can they generally do it without doggy paddling, stopping to hold the wall or standing.[/quote] Is that to join or to graduate? [/quote] To join. Pre team is about taking kids who have basic swimming skills and improving them. It isn’t the same as teaching them how to swim. [/quote] Seems to vary- at our pool (in MCSL), if your child swims freestyle across the pool at the evaluation they go straight to the swim team. Pre-team is for the kids who can swim a few yards independently , then over the course of the season the goal is to get them swimming a length of freestyle, and backstroke although more kids are able to accomplish the former.
