Does this include minis? How many practices do you have?


I’m the poster of the referenced data. Our team’s minis do not practice with the team. They practice right before the pool opens, and they do not swim in B meets unless they become eligible in the season. Our team has three practices: one is for 13+ with some advanced 11-12s (most of them are already practicing with club teams though); one is for 9-12s; a third is for 10&unders (brand new to swim swimmers + 8Us). We have a catchall evening practice two nights/week. Only 10-15 swimmers tend to attend evening practice though.

A starter pool? This pool is a finisher pool! A pool of gods! The golden gods! I am untethered, and my rage knows no bounds!

The dearth of pools in the surrounding area gives them an advantage that almost no other pool has- everyone else can pick up and travel another 5 minutes to the next closest pool for any reason. Not so in that pocket.

Their waitlists and the rabid swim culture has spread so far to make KG relevant. Back in the day, KG was a rinky-dink starter pool, but demand has enabled that place to build itself up.


Who you callin' "rinky dink"?

For kicks and giggles, can you share which league and division your team is in and how many swimmers you have on your team?

My team is NVSL Division 2 and we have about 200-215 that are eligible to swim in B meets (ie, not “pre-team” swimmers).


Nobody cares about the Atlanta league. If you like the NVSL, that league sucks.


I’m from Texas


Per SwimTopia this summer, the only league that has more teams than NVSL is the Atlanta league.


My mistake. I figure NWAL was about the same size or maybe bigger. It’s fully irrelevant except the question about team size and divisions.

lol NVSL people have a weird insecurity thing about the Atlanta summer league.


It’s so weird! People from the ATL don’t give people from here a second thought unless they’re friends or family. They’ve never even heard of NVSL, and they certainly wouldn’t care.
