[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, we moved here a few years ago so we went through this. Here is my advice:

1) get on summer league pool waitlists now. NVSL and MCSL both have 20? or so divisions with six teams each. The pools in the top two divisions are not what I would call fun bc they are so focused on winning, but if that's what you want, go for it. Some pools will kindly upon your application if you offer to officiate.

2) As for club swim, in VA look at AAC (Arlington) which is very affordable and has good coaching, Machine (family-run but has many locations) and NCap (the VA sites are the best for NCap). In Maryland, personally, I wish we had gone with ASA. NCap Prep and NCap AU have a spate of issues and I can't wait to get my child out of NCap. We were thinking of moving to RMSC when their pool got shut down.

Good luck![/quote]

Not to sidebar the thread, but ASA has received a number of transfers swimmers this year for various reasons (see previous posts and other threads).  I'm an ASA parent and can say that it has great team cohesion with few personality issues between kids.  They work hard, but they have fun (even at the meets - they often stay after their individual events to cheer on their teammates).[/quote]
