[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious. How many posters here have had kids swimming D1? Full scholarship? Looking back, was it worth it? [/quote] Full scholarships are rare in swimming as it is a sport that allows splitting them. It has never been about the college end-game in my house, so yes, it is worth it. My kid has had a fulfilling sports experience in many ways. All the life lessons and relationships are worth it. Kid was able to maintain a second sport through middle school and avoid early mornings until high school as well. Even then, it has been a manageable schedule. Hard work for sure, but it's not every day at 4am like some people imagine. There are times I was disappointed about other opportunities my kid couldn't do being so dedicated to one thing, but that one thing provided different opportunities and it was the choice that was made (by the kid).
