[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly think its unfair how much more the fast kids get for their swim team registration.

B meet Larlo pays $200 and gets to swim in 5 lame, long, boring B meets that aren't even scored like real meets.

A meet Larla pays $200 and gets to swim in 5 super fun A meets, with themes and team lunches, 5 B meets, extra attention from coaches during Practice, relay carnival, all star relay carnival, and individual all stars. A
meet Larla's parents aren't required to do any extra volunteering above what B meet Larlo's parenrs do. It honestly feels like the B team families are subsidizing the A swimmers.

At our pool we do have an expectation that parents of kids who swim all A meets volunteer more.  Most do 2x.  People don't notice.  I have a season long job and so does my husband.  We work a min of 8 meets each.  Someone asked how they could get an easy job like mine.  I politely let them know I work 10 meets normally and so does my husband.   People who have kids at divisionals and All starts and The relay carnivals are expected to work those meets in addition to their "season" amount.

It will never be perfect, but most of the veteran parents do double, it just isn't advertised.[/quote]
