[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of pools recruit. Even in the lower divisions. The division 1 teams are just more successful at it. Why do people care?  It’s not against any rules and those teams all seem to enjoy the ultra competitive swim environment. It’s not like you don’t know what you are signing up for with those teams. If you want a different swim experience, you find a lower level team. We swim with a low division pool and love it. I couldn’t care less about what the other teams do. [/quote]

Most of the low division teams are HOA pools. No low level pools recruit, how silly. [/quote]

I’m not so sure that’s 100% accurate.  We’re in a low division pool - we move between 8-11.  We have a family that belongs to a country club.  They also were at another NVSL pool simply for the swim team.  That team was even lower than us - probably Division 15.  Our head coach is an NCAP coach.  They switched to our pool.  The only time they are at our pool is for practice and meets.  Since that family switched, we’ve had a few others that join simply for our swim team.  Our coach is extremely popular with the kids.

[b]I heard a rumor that Fox Mill Woods recruited a couple of 15-18 brothers back in 2017 to break two of the NVSL relay records.  The brothers had been at  Chesterbrook and switched to FMW, which was a Division 9 team at the time.  They broke the NVSL 15-18 boys 200 Free relay that year and the 200 Medley the next year.  The brothers went to W&L high school (Arlington) but Fox Mill Woods is in Reston.[/quote][/b]

This is true, but the boys weren't 'Recruited' by the FWM coach or FWM Team Reps, all 4 boys swam together at machine and decided to form a mega-relay.  [/quote]

And their record has already been broken.[/quote]
