2. practice after school

3. only one meet a week

4. no Saturday practice

5. coaches are encouraging

6. teammates are nice/friendly

7. he is making new friends

8. he is discovering new talents

9. he is learning some new things

10. he is experiencing some success at it already (three medals from two meets!)
