[quote=Anonymous]I would start slow if you have a 7 year old. If you want to go the "Club" option, I'd do the Machine stroke mechanics and that will really hone in on getting legal/stroke fundamentals. You won't be going to meets but I think that is fine. If you just want to keep the enthusiasm up, definitely go for the Summer Team Winter program. It will probably be some of the same kids your child swims with anyway, and just keep them in the water. The Clubs (Machine, Fish, York, etc) ramp up pretty quick (in my opinion too quick). At such a young age, I'd focus on keeping it fun and staying with friends. Don't worry so much about the competitiveness just yet - Winter Swim can be a long slog. - NVSL D1 McLean parent with 2 swimmers[/quote]
