After private summer lessons, and extra time in the pool, Ian tried out to join an new swim team. This team is smaller, and the coaching will be better (better ratio) negating the necessity of private supplemental lessons. Also, the owner is vested in the success in his swimmers in a way the "big clubs" cannot be. Here are a few scenes of Ian preparing and then participating in the new swim team try-out.
UPDATE 8/13/15: Ian made the new swim team - a much smaller program with better (and more individualized) coaching. There were many issues with the last time (everything from volunteering mandates, to disorganization and "puppy mill" feel). This is already 100% better. Congratulations to Ian.
