[quote=Anonymous]I think both positions can be true — this isn’t an either/or situation. Meet organizers and volunteers work extremely hard and deserve respect. They give a lot of their time, are juggling so many responsibilities, and should be afforded a great deal of understanding and sympathy for doing their best under difficult conditions. And Regionals is an incredibly important meet for hundreds of swimmers who train all season for that moment. A big part of the Regionals experience for swimmers and teams is learning their EXACT time or place, which determines whether they advance to states. Yes, that information may be available 30 minutes later on printouts, but it’s not the same. So, some of the complaints and advocacy for connecting the scoring system to the brand-new scoreboard — which was showing Rec Center ads instead of live swim times on the first day — shouldn’t be dismissed or brushed off as yet another example of entitled parents.[/quote]
