Any feedback on NCAP-North or JF Dolphins?

JFD is definitely the less competitive option. NCAP North is smaller compared to the club’s other sites, but I haven’t heard anything negative about the coaching. Which one is a better fit will depend on your kid’s proficiency.

Totally accurate. After these in Germantown/Gaithersburg area your next closest are those in the MD LSC. There are great clubs - eg Monocacy Aquatic (MAC) has some good swimmers and they are outside of Frederick, I think. If in Damascus, you will be driving a lot for PVS meets as Germantown only hosts RMSC meets occasionally.

RMSC Germantown

NCAP Montgomery College (have not heard good things, but it's been awhile)
NCAP Quince Orchard (have never heard anything)

Looks to me like you might be closer to Frederick, which isn't PVS, but I think there are a couple good clubs there.

Is there a decent club close to Damascus, MD? We are currently in PVS. Would prefer to stay in PVS if possible...
