2nd last class of this swimming session was the last chance for coaches to test and evaluate the kids. Here now are my predictions.
[The girl] is a very strong swimmer for her age. She is able to perform all the necessary skills at her current level and many in the next. She needs to focus on her style as that will allow her to swim with less effort. Her strengths are her sideways glide and forward crawl. [The girl] is very attentive and considerate of all other swimmers and is a joy to have in the class. We recommend she proceed to the next level.
[The boy] has the potential to be a very good swimmer and would benefit mostly from paying more attention to the instruction being given. He has made tremndous progress in this class and now has the buoyancy of a rock or similarly non-porous object. We would encourage [the boy] to repeat the same level of instruction(1). However, as he is currently a danger to himself and other swimmers, we cannot allow him to do so at this facility. Please contact our front office for recommendations that we feel would be suitable for [the boy]. Our fine city is blessed with both natural waters as well as significant pot-holes that are easily filled with fluids. Good luck with that.
(1) At this time we cannot estimate the number of repetitions required to progress to the next level. Please keep in mind that we are not committing to, nor legally bound to guarantee, his ability to progress to the next level.
