[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tollefson is another option. They could get him up to speed on all his strokes, then he could move over to the team when ready.[/quote]

TOLL isn't bad, but it's very expensive.[/quote]

DP - Which group at TOLL is suitable for this situation?  They told me 11 was "too old" to start club swimming, so... yeah.[/quote]

Strange because they recruit many first time club swimmers of all ages from summer league teams. Their top groups would be too tough for a very new swimmer but their lower tier group and stroke and endurance classes are great for novices[/quote]

An 11 year old legal in all four strokes, turns, pull outs, etc., with multiple summer swim seasons is not a novice. Maybe it’s different if you already do lessons with them, but their tryouts were fairly intense, with some weirdness from one of the coaches towards my kid. They’re also expensive as hell.

OP, we also know folks who have liked JFD - their location at Prep fills up very fast. More space at Quince Orchard. In any case, good luck to your DC! There are some welcoming programs for older kids, for sure.[/quote]
