[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid doesn't even have BB times. He's having fun and learning to be a better swimmer. It's fine! You just need a club that coaches the slow kids too.[/quote]

At all clubs, the slower swimmers subsidize the faster swimmers, but different clubs treat that base of the pyramid differently. I have one slower swimmer and one faster swimmer. At our old club, it was clear that the coaches and leadership couldn’t have cared less about the slower swimmer improving. They felt like a second class citizen. We changed clubs and it’s totally different. The coaches are attentive toward all the swimmers and my DC enjoys it so much more because they get feedback and feel like the coaches care about their improvement, even if it’s moderate. [/quote]

Curious what team you're at now (if you're in PVS). I have one kid who is a moderately fast swimmer and one slower swimmer and we definitely feel like the club only cares about the fastest. [/quote]

Ah thank you! I wish we lived closer to a Machine site - I've heard great things![/quote]
