[quote=Anonymous]My kid ds are year round swimmers, have made the MCLS All Star meet, etc but I’m glad we’re not Division A. The things we enjoy about summer swim is camaraderie, multi-age friendships, cheering on the kid who may never make an A meet - or breaks into an A-meet for the first time. I feel like teams in the middle divisions have more of that. Summer swim for us is about community, joys of childhood, and learning experiences. You can get that at any level, but may not be able to get that at the highest levels if the focus is only on performance. Club swim is where you go if you really want to develop as a person, not a swimmer (and those summer leagues in the A division are there bc a lot of the team does year round club, not because the summer coach is superior).[/quote]
