[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the most important things you need to do in finding a club for a young kid is to find a club that emphasizes a great IMX score.  If your kid wants a scholarship or wants any long term success, they need to get this score high.  Think of it as the SAT score for swimmers [/quote]

OMG you always post this and it isn't true at all[/quote]
This a weird thing that this poster is fixated on. It’s a great tool to incentivize the young age groupers to become well rounded, but it doesn’t have any impact on college recruiting whatsoever. Like someone else stated, if your kid is excellent at one of the specialty strokes but not great at another specialty stroke it doesn’t matter because their recruitment is not based on their weak stroke.

I want to know how old the kid of this poster is.  I have a kid swimming in a Power 5 division 1 conference and a second swimmer currently being recruited by Div 1 programs.  This is NOT a thing anyone in HS pays any attention to.  Nor do college coaches care.  They care about your 3 best events and your ability to help their relays.[/quote]
