[quote=Anonymous]Our teams hangs them as decorations and they aren’t announced. Jr coaches only make them for kids who have rsvp’d to banquet (we make that know to encourage responses). They do carry a few extra plates in case of a snafu. The wall of plates looks extremely festive. Also, teen coaches are learning how to do this job so plate awards should be reviewed by adults. We always have 1 or 2 that require redos. Once we explain why it could be misinterpreted, it’s a good learning experience for everyone. Kids make mistakes and the coaches frown from the experience. For everyone one of those, there are 10 plates that are thoughtful and more than the adults could come up with. And, to the earlier poster who said some are non- swimming related, at our pool that is fine and isn’t a negative. We have a big team and some kids contribute in other ways besides swim or have notable qualities not directly related but can be celebrated nonetheless. [/quote]
