[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several parents on our upper-division NVSL team haven’t registered for summer 2023 because of a child who is a top points earner but toxic otherwise (won’t practice, won’t listen, badmouths and complains about her teammates, screams at her hapless parents on the deck, etc.). Generally, I appreciate the black and white nature of swim - the top times qualify for A meets and that’s all there is to it. Our coach appears unwilling to deviate from this practice, even if it means losing some families or guaranteeing a less fun summer for others. Is this the norm? What would your coach do?[/quote] How is the team/club structured? Is there a board w/ some oversight of the team? It would seem that if this swimmer is that bad, it would be universally recognized and they could do something. But now you are getting into "politics" and the dynamics of the people/parents involved, etc. [/quote]
