Our pool's swim team, the Ragin' Rays, has a group for the younger kids who are still learning the basics, called the Risin' Rays. It's basically the 4-7 year olds who aren't ready for the big Tuesday night meets. They practice every day, and the meets are on Saturday morning.
We had low expectations for Andrew's first meet, he usually swims about 100 feet and then grabs the lane rope to catch his breath.
On the block . . .
Blowing away the competition
For the little kids, a coach stays in the lane, just in case, and Coach Justin was awesome, he kept Andrew off the lane rope!!
1st place!!! We are so proud!
The U-6 kids only do freestyle & backstroke
Coach Martha is helping Andy work on his arms!
We have been so impressed with the swim program. We just wanted Andy to get some extra swim lessons, and who knew how much he would improve. It's hard to believe he's only 4!
