[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re a competitive swim family. Our swimmer is an age grouper, so still young and not practicing every day. We spend about $4,500-$5,000 all in for winter and summer rec swim seasons, meet fees, equipment, occasional private lessons, and other miscellaneous. Costs will go up as he swims more and starts wanting to buy tech suits. And if he gets really good we’ll have to factor in the cost of travel. But generally, there’s enough swimming competition in this area you don’t need to travel far to find it. [/quote] Mine swam national training level through HS, spent about the same. $5k in training, meet fees Plus, tech suits ($600/year - deals through club) and travel ($2-3k per year depending on team travel vs family travel and schedule/flying vs driving, etc.)[/quote]
