[quote=Anonymous]Our pre-team is open to kids who can swim 15m. It can be an ugly 15m. It has many benefits: inexpensive, daily practice, motivation supplied by older kids. But it’s run by a handful of trained coaches for lots of kids at once with young teen swim team kids providing the in-water support and guidance (though teen to mini ratio is great at our pool - pretty much 1:1). Many families do pre-team supplemented by private lessons also offered by our pool. In the past, our pool has also offered group swim lessons as well. My kids did that at ages 4 and 5 daily for 2 weeks, which worked great for getting them proficient. As others have noted, you’re too late for preterm this summer - but you might be able to find lessons. I’d start investigating pool clubs near you if you think you’d be interested next year. Some offer August memberships and may have lessons you could sign up for then (often taught by older teen swim team kids).[/quote]
