[quote=Anonymous]What I’ve realized at our pool is that nothing fixes this because there’s an incentive mismatch. The non-volunteers know that fee or not, if they don’t show up, the parents of 50-200 other swimmers will step up rather than cancel a meet. Has anyone ever forfeited or cancelled a meet at the last minute due to no-show volunteers? Ever? In the entire history of summer swim? I’m a parent rep and we were recently wondering this after the usual pre-meet scramble to cover for parents who signed up but “forgot and are out of town” but never actually planned to show up.
