[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ours has a 7am all-ages practice (which we use for the weeks our kids are in camp) and then they have age group practices over the next 2-3 hours after that.  Sometimes "fun" stuff after the age-group practice.  Optional clinics in the afternoons a couple of days a week depending on age group.

It's definitely do-able (if a bit of a scramble) for families with kids in camp / 2 working parents, but optimized for those with more flexibility.  We try to split the difference with about half of the weeks in camp and half where we make the later morning practices work.

Our coaches/leadership want it to be fun so there's not any notable attendance pressure (but it's a great experience and kids are drawn to be there).  [/quote]

This is brilliant.  Which pool?

Ours is 8:15-9:15 for 9-12; 9:15-10 8u and mini; 13+ 10-11:00. Tough for working parents and teens who have summer jobs or take summer classes.  [/quote]

After years of the older kids having the first practice, a younger parent put out a biased survey to move the practice times - eg there was no where on the survey to indicate older kid time preferences. Now older kids have last practice.

We ended up leaving for another pool with better practice times. Pool doesn’t have any 15-18s anymore. [/quote]
