So pulling pamphlets and looking at practices in our area the clubs are very white. The brochure for the Marlins looks like an Arian PR piece with white male leaders. Cover has four very white girls and inside super blonde boys. Clubs with diversity in a very white sport? |

| NCAP has a good deal of diversity in its swimmers. But you are going to not find a lot of clubs with too much diversity. You see this on summer teams as well. |

| RMCS in MoCo has a decent amount of diversity, for a swim club. |

| The summer rec team in Alexandria, the wahoos, is one of the most diverse summer swim clubs in the area. |

The brochure in question is on a public website - apparently someone reported it???? Which makes zero sense if this is at pools and on the web.

I didn’t report it, but I will say posting the link is better than posting the actual brochure with the photos and names of children. |

These parents okayed their kids names and photos to be online and in paper format at pools all over NoVa. That is on them. |
