[quote=Anonymous]10yo girl loves water and based on conversations with friends, wants to join a school-year swim team. But friends are very very athletic and fast swimmers on a competitive, high intensity team, whereas our child is just not particularly fast or skilled. I know her interest is social and for fun in the water rather than a desire to win races. As she’s not sporty, I’m thrilled she has a physical activity she enjoys and I want to encourage it and not ruin it by signing her up for something where she might feel like she is “failing.” Also didn’t grow up in the US and not at all familiar with how swim teams even work. Do you all have any suggestions for an option for her? Thank you![/quote]
