[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First - you get what you pay for. Summer swim is cheap. Do more expensive lessons if you want more. Second - freestyle is the easiest to swim legally. [b]Anything goes except touching the bottom or hanging on to a lap lane to rest.[/b] Third - your swim team is likely run by adult volunteers and paid teen coaches. If you want more fun things to happen - perhaps you can volunteer to help organize.[/quote] Actually, neither of those situations would be a DQ (at least in NVSL). You can touch or stand on the bottom in freestyle; you just can't spring up from the bottom after you touch or walk along the bottom. You can also grab the lane line; you just can't use the lane line to propel forward (so you would need to push off backwards if holding to rest).[/quote]
