[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since we are now talking PVS/ VSI meet “territory”. PVS parents should be aware that we (PVS parents) have paid VSI over $190,000.00 since 2021 because of meets hosted at “their” territory. Further please read the VSI April BOD meeting minutes from the year they decided to pass this “tax” on to PVS families, the VSI board states— “PVS parents can afford it”. So our money pays into an “endowment” that does not benefit a single PVS athlete at all.

A PVS club owner directly asked the USAS BOD at summit 2 weeks ago to establish a group to look into these practices all over the country to stop unnecessarily “taxing” parents in the sport. This is now happening.

Taxes like this is one of the many reasons Block Party was started. The mission overall is to help keep families in the sport by lowering costs and families time commitment.

Please stop speculating and call USA swimming and ask. [/quote]

Where else are jurisdiction disputes happening? Texas? California? I’m trying to think of places with potentially overlapping LSCs. Block parties and the tiered registration options largely sprung from Swim Atlanta’s (and Nitro, I believe, but don’t quote me) deciding to register all but their most serious swimmers with AAU, but I can see how they could benefit teams involved in jurisdictional disputes.
