[quote=Anonymous]The idea of pre team is to get kids used to the water, feel part of the big swim team (the pre teamers are always part of our team's pep rally's), make friends with kids their age and get to commect with the older kids on the swim team. It is not meant at all for serious swim learning. Some pre teamers can make it across the pool by the end of the season adn will particpate in the last B meet. The look on their faces when they do it is priceless and gives them so much confidence. We did both swim lessons and pre team. It was a great experience and we are still doing summer swim team after 10 years. Also-keep in mind that summer swim team is much different than competitve swim teams during the year. Yes, there is lots of competition but even the serious swimmers will tell you that they love summer swimming because it is fun and helps them form lifelong friendships.[/quote]
