Not from the ones observing. Those are mostly associate coaches. We had an issue with the tryouts and the head coaches claimed to not be in the pool area at all.
It's really more about which hands you grease with private lessons or other USA swimming program you transfer from.
"Thanks for your email. I completely understand your frustration. I did ask the coaches that were evaluating the swimmers to try a dive if they had time. Unfortunately, one coach misunderstood and took them off the blocks instead of the side as I had mentioned. Diving off the side is all we would expect for anyone coming into our program. We know there aren't opportunities to go off blocks. I apologize."
