[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The parents are so often the issue in kids’ sports. My swimmer is going to one of this weekend’s meets and they have winter champs cuts, etc., so this is a chill meet for them to do some off events. They are very excited for the meet though because they have some teammates who are super close to making winter champs for the first time and want them to get to go and get the bag tags, and swag, and the whole champs meet experience. And my kid is not some outlier, their teammates are genuinely supportive of each other. The parents on the other hand….complaining to coaches, gossiping about kids and telling their kid they need to try and beat X teammate, it’s exhausting. [/quote] I have a kid on the cusp this year. They might make it, they might not. They made it on their major year last year and loved the experience so much. So they are pretty driven. For some kids, swimming it their passion and it means a lot to them. And they support their friends that it means a lot for as well.[/quote]
