[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At that level, you need private lessons 2-3 times a week during the summer.[/quote]

Not the OP but if you don't belong to a pool, this is really hard to arrange.[/quote]

We belong to a summer pool and my teen has been giving lessons for years. For families who don’t belong, they add in the guest pass fee each lesson. [/quote]

This is the way.  Have them swim on the summer swim team.  They will not be star competitors.   That’s fine.  They will become, by the end of one season, competent swimmers.  Do it for more than one season.  If you do it for 2-3 years, they will become very good swimmers who you will not worry over when they go swimming at a friend’s house.

Again, they may like it enough to become swim team kids, but not necessarily.  None of my kids ever swam on a high school team.  They are all good swimmers.  They all would say they absolutely will make their own kids join a swim team to learn to swim well.
