[quote=Anonymous]My ES kids have been taking swim lessons at the community pool over the past few summers and my older one has basically “graduated”; she’s learned all of the strokes, though they’re far from perfect, she def still needs to practice them and swimming overall, but has learned everything they teach in the group lessons.  She wants to keep swimming and to improve her technique, she’ll need something guided, not just swimming at the pool with her friends.  Is swim team the next step?  If not, what is?  I’ve chatted with other moms at the lessons and one of them told me she was signing up her then-preschoolers for swim team.  It sounded like the goal was for them to get lots of swim practice / become stronger swimmers, competing was more a side note.  My kid is not looking to become a HS or college swimmer and she’s not really competitive, although she’ll do competitions if she has to.  Would swim team be right for her?  DH and I just want our kids to become good swimmers for safety and enjoyment.[/quote]
