[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another honest assessment. It’s hard for kids who are competitive swimmers (let’s say year round swimmers/A meet swimmers) to cut 3 seconds over the course of a summer season in a stroke that they commonly swim. For kids who are middle of the pack, maybe those who have experience with summer swim but don’t swim year round (but who focus on improving their time), 3 seconds sounds about right. For inexperienced swim team members new to the whole thing, I would expect them to cut more than 3 seconds from their initial time over the summer, especially a 10 year old. This isn’t to say that those swimmers won’t cut tons more time in the future, but as a parent I would consider getting them some private stroke instruction because it sounds like some focused stroke refinement could help them catch up with the pack.[/quote] This is exactly what I was going to say.
