[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't people want to swim at Tuckahoe or Chesterbrook?

We have never had a problem finding B meet teams, I didn't realize this was even an issue. [/quote]

We swam at Chesterbrook and the parents were incredibly rude.  Their kids could be overheard bad mouthing our swimmers (loudly) and the team on the whole (calling our swimmers slow, why are we swimming them, etc).

On top of that, for such a nice food their concessions were terrible - the food was disgusting and we all ended up needing to pick up dinner after the meet.

+1. Their swimmers are rude and they have an infamous starter who seems to relish inducing the youngest kids to false start. He’s been reported to no avail. [/quote]

I forgot about the starter!  And the food - one of our swimmers got a burger took a bite and spit it out immediately.  Not sure how you mess up a burger that bad but the food was awful.

But yes on how nasty the kids were. I assume it is a [b]coaching issue (not teaching sportsmanship) [/b]but the openly trashing our swimmers was just unreal.  We were also a one and done with them.

Every summer they are searching for new partners and a lot of it was just how rotten the families were.[/quote]

Doubtful it's on the coaches. usually starts with the parents.
