[quote=Anonymous]At our pool, lease members are allowed to be on the swim team. You should look into practice times before you commit. Our pool makes no accommodations for working parents. Some practices are from 9-10am and 10-11am, depending on age. There are two evening practices per week, but those often are cancelled for dive team activities. The coaches also stress the no vacation before August idea. We belong to the pool because all our friends and kids' friends belong to the pool, and its a great social environment for the kids. The swim team situation is, however, not ideal for working parent, and the coaches don't do a good job working with younger kids and expect them to take lessons to be very good swimmers before being on the team specifically for younger kids. Other pools are way better at working with younger kids. These are the some of the things you should figure out when selecting a pool.[/quote]
