[quote=Anonymous]There is favoritism in every sport. There are plenty of parent coached sports where the coaches' kid get more playing time even if they aren't that great. In swimming times will speak for themselves and are what are used for things like relays, but it is true that coaches will pay more attention to some kid over others. As others have mentioned, these kids tend to be the ones who are nice, take direction/coaching well and often, not always, the kids with more talent. A lot of it probably goes hand-in-hand- kids is motivated, works hard and it a kid a coach want to coach so they get more attention. I know in another post someone mentioned kids not doing meets and while this is fine I do think that the kids who never do meets probably get less attention because the coach knows they don't really care about swimming and competing.
