[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Swimmers that can't do freestyle don't really exist on swim teams.[/quote] Oddly enough, our daughter is completed uncoordinated and slow at freestyle, but an A meet swimmer at breaststroke (and much faster at breast than at free). Hard to believe but it does happen.[/quote] How old? I've seen this happen with youngsters and beginners but by the time they get some swim experience the freestyle comes around just from exposure in warm-ups, etc. [/quote] 8&U. She's far from a beginner, but breaststroke is much more natural for her than free. That will change with time, of course.[/quote]
