[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, when you say he 'has some form issues" are you saying is not legal in all four strokes?

Because if he is at a least legal, there are several options.[/quote]

Thanks.  He is legal (I believe) in all but butterfly.  He struggles w butterfly.  Looks horrible.  The dolphin movement is a challenge.  He’s not flexible in that way.

OK then, based on where you live, you should look up The Capitol Sea Devils Age Group 3 and Bronze development groups, both expect him to be legal in three strokes, and both have 12 year olds.[/quote]

Are sea devils age group 3 and bronze development group separate groups?  I looked at website and see must be legal in all 4 strokes, even if you can only do the last one for 25 meters.  Am I missing something?[/quote]

"Bronze Training Group

11-14 years old, 9 month program Sept-May; Swimmers should be proficient in free and back for distances of at least 50 yards and be legal in breast [b]and/or[/b] fly f a distance of at least 25 yards. There are 4 practices offered per week. While swimmers are strongly encouraged to attend all practices, it is understood that swimmers in this group have other commitments and may not be able to attend all practices. Similarly, meet participation is strongly encouraged, but is not required."[/quote]

Thanks.  Unfortunately there is no coach listed for this group yet.  [/quote]

Your son is currently not in a position to pick his coaches. When he makes first AAA, he might be..[/quote]
