[quote=Anonymous] Piling on. Swim is a lot different than other sports. Summer leagues in this area are supposed to be fun. Most teams have more social activities planned than meets. But the level of instruction and coaching varied from team to team. If coaches are throwing kids in meets (A or B) that cannot make it safely across the pool or everyone is holding their breath to see if they do -- that kid should not have been in that meet. They were not ready. And that shows a callous disregard for that child's safety but more importantly (as another poster stated) the potential damage/embarrassment it would cause that kid. Swimming should be a sport EVERY kid does for at least a few years. You don't want to scare them off.[/quote]
