[quote=Anonymous]Tons of kids quit winter swim. Some people sign up their kids for winter swim after they do really well in summer league. I have seen coaches encourage this. But a lot of the kids with a knack for swimming are generally athletic, which means they are also good at other sports. Quite a few of them will gravitate to those other sports after a couple of years. I would argue that the winter swim decision should be based more on how much the kid enjoys swimming vs. how fast they are. A kid who enjoys swimming is going to stick with it longer than the kid who is fast but likes other sports just as much or more. [/quote]
