When I swam in HS 27yrs ago, girls my age were swimming 100yd free in just under 59.0. Now I look at HS times and I'm blown away on how fast they are swimming and at younger ages.
What has changed?
Beetle,
Do the kids take a bus to get their swim lessons or do the elementary schools have pools in them? If so, that is fantastic! I went to 3 different high schools and only one of the 3 had a pool.
I think mandatory elementary swim lessons is a great idea, if for safety more than any other reason. The problem here (in the US) is pool access.
