[quote=Anonymous]Are your kids trying to swim fast? I've been a swim parent for a long time and a lot of little kids are just trying to get across the pool. Maybe that's all your kids were trying to do. I see kids who make huge improvements over one season; I see other kids who have been on the team for years and are still really slow. Most of the ones who are really slow just don't know how to race and, frankly, don't care. I'm sorry, but it doesn't take a lot of technique to swim a 25 back or a 50 free. I see kids with terrible technique who still swim faster than that because they try. Little kids sometimes need to be reminded that they are trying to swim fast...that sounds crazy, but that is my experience. [/quote]
