I stopped swimming at my freshman year of college. I am a sophmore in college now. I quit swimming because I hadnt improved on my times in years, was a very mental swimmer and just couldnt handle the stress of it.. I know i stll couldnt handle those things. But my point is I miss swimming like crazy. My life seems so differnt and incomplete without it and I dont know how to react to this. I miss being part of a team and in the best shape of my life and all those wonderful things the sport of swimming has to offer. I feel like i have no point in going to school anymore, when i was in high school i always wanted to go to college because of swimming and now that its gone i am so lost. I still know I would not be completly happy with my choice if i was swimming, but would it be better to have that extra stress then to feel like something that is such a big part of me is missing....
help please
My college had a mens and womens varsity team, then after 3 yrs they cut the men's team.
but a few years back someone started a club team. those swimming are former HS swimmers, that didn't really have the times to compete in DIV 1, but still wanted to be apart of a team, swim and compete at a lower level.
The club team practices 3-5 times a week, and competes 4-5 times a year (I think). but its men's and women's together.
as a 19-20 you could look for a masters team in the area.
