[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does he NEED to be on the swim team???? We never did swim team as kids because my parents refused to go to events before 8am:). All 3 of us are good swimmers. Why can't he just swim for recreation and supplement with higher level swim lessons? My kids play soccer, baseball and basketball---but we don't do swim year round, nor do we do swim team. They are now strong swimmers--5 and 8. Sometimes I will do a series of private lessons to work on stroke, etc. I would much rather go out for a run than a swim. Many people are this way. I have met so many parents in this area that are so swim team-gung ho. If a kid doesn't want to race, don't sweat it.[/quote] Btw, my kids dropped baseball after a few years because they found it boring as hell. One does travel soccer. The other flag football, travel basketball. Why would I force them to be on a baseball team if they didn't have any interest in it?[/quote]
