[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were in AAC.  Take a look club.  it is not Safe Sport certified anymore, and it shows with the treatment of their athletes.[/quote]

AAC has a long history of not treating boys well in almost all their competition groups.  They seem to not want to develop their male swimmers and give up on them.  Someone told me in their top groups it is 70% women and 30% men which is an issue and not typical of a club.

I wonder if it the Huske effect.  They had one Olympian who was a late bloomer by swimmer standards so they got her where she needed to be and the success was great and now they want to recreate it.  But, in reality by not investing in their boys they are letting them fail.  Boys keep growing through college so they should really be working with them. But they tend to focus on the early blooming boy and then he peaks out and who knows all the talent that they let slip through the cracks because of it.

How do they treat non-binary?[/quote]

Sometimes I wonder who the trolls are and why.  How many clubs have non-binary swimmers at their top competitive groups in the DC area?  Off the top of my head I can think of none.  So what kind of question is this, but to throw the thread off topic.

If this question is important to you, start a new thread.[/quote]
