[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that facilities have different rules for diffent patrons but this is starting to be a bit much. My child made their first JO age 10 and that was cancelled. Aged up since last year’s JO was moved back a few weeks and couldn’t make the 12 year old cuts. So this year will be the first one. The child is so proud to be there and it sucks that we can’t share in this moment after years of disappointments.

Anecdotally it seems like the swim community is super vaccinated and has no issue with masking so I would be shocked if there was any kind of outbreak if they allowed a support person to watch.

Most other sports have opened to spectators.[/quote]

Your child is 12...assuming s/he keeps swimming (which is a huge assumption given tons of kids quit between 13-15), you'll have many years ahead of you to sweat it out in an uncomfortable pool and watch your kid swim. Everyone should be happy that JOs is back to a normal format (i.e., not split between sites like last year) at an excellent facility. Please stop complaining. [/quote]
DP, but you really need to STFU. Some of us don’t “sweat it out” at the pool and enjoy watching our kids compete, particularly at a meet that is a recognition of the hard work that kid has put in. The sanctimony of some people is ridiculous.[/quote]
