Answer 1

If you enjoy swimming then do it. Masters swimming accepts people at a range of different swimming levels.

Answer 2

go for it =]

Answer 3

You must be willing to commit yourself to this. Swimming year round competetivly is no vacation. While your local swim club will have workouts appropriate for all ages, you have to know that they will be tough.

If you are willing to commit yourself to a swim team, then yes. If not, then no.

Good luck! K

Answer 4

The answer is more in do you want to work at this swim team. I myself am on a swim team and I can tell you its lots of work. You don't necessarily have to swim fast to make it on a swim team. As long as you arm strokes are fairly nice and move a lot of water most teams will accept beginners. I would say GO for it. You will get a lot of training once on the swim team that will make you swim better and go faster. Eventually you will be swimming 4 miles without brakes on the team, (or at least my team does for training) SO if your willing to work at It YES join the team!
