[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid did Machine at Fairland at 10y. It was awesome at first. Small groups with lots of focus on technique. Once they realized he wasn't going to win a race (or even be in the top 20 in a huge meet) they all but started ignoring him. [/quote] Is this most swimming clubs do? I know some clubs even don’t focus on strokes from the beginning. They only accept strong swimmers[/quote] Parent of kid who was ignored here - I think it depends on the club. We found a better fit for him. More laid back, focus on improving his own time vs winning, etc. Swimming for him is fun and social. He isn't going to compete after high school so we just needed to find a club that met his/our needs.[/quote] Where did you find a better fit? [/quote]
