[quote=Anonymous]My son played both in HS. He was a competitive swimmer starting at age 6 and started WP in HS. He now swims in college. The benefit of being a swimmer who then plays WP is that the athlete is comfortable in the water and can recover when being pushed under. Being successful at WP is more about build and the ability to be aggressive as well as having a good arm and being able to score. As someone said above, your son should wear a speedo, not a jammer and be ready for a very aggressive and physical sport. Also, after the WP season, my son's stroke looked horrible and he had to work on regaining his swim form.[/quote]
