[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been in winter swimming a number of years so I feel like i know it pretty well.

Toll-was a smaller program but is growing which is hurting them a bit becuase they have a samll staff and it is expensive.

RMSC is big, you will see a lot of kids at the try out and when we tried out they had 12 spots open and probably 100 kids show up.  Some of them had no business being there.  We went with RMSC and it is totally fine for winter, a lot of meets and your child will get better but we feel it lacks individual coaching once you get out of minis.

If you cna move up to advanced jrs you get more individual attention but it is hard work.  3-5 practices a week.

The top summer pool coaches coach at RMSC

ASA-a low key program, decent, the coaches are younger

FINS is good for your average swimmers who want to maintain where they are.

NCAP is on par with RMSC but more individual coaching and much more expensive.

The meets are big, many events at meets have 120 swimmers in each race.  The meets are very long and you can't go onto thte deck at all to tlak to your child.

Winter swiming and doing meets is not for everyone, some of the best swimmers do winter but hen some of them don't

We're thinking to sign up for RMSC in this fall. Which location did you go for try-out and practice? Not sure if possible but I am looking for practice location that is less crowded. Thanks![/quote]
