[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Summer swim. The community over years of both kids and parents. I feel like it’s how I’ve watched the kids of my neighborhood grow up. [/quote]

Have heard others say this too but swim team is such a clique at our pool. And the schedule is almost impossible for working parents unless you have a nanny.[/quote]

+same. You're only welcomed if you're good enough to help the team but not threaten the individual results of the best swimmers. I thought the atmosphere was toxic. I made my kids do it for just 2 years to solidify their swimming skills, but they begged me to stop, which I agreed to eventually.[/quote]

I think there is a huge variation in the culture of swim team between different neighborhoods and teams.   [/quote]

I suspect this is true for every sport.  More laid back, easygoing parents = a better experience for the kids.  Some areas just don't seem to have as many laid back, easygoing families.[/quote]
