[quote=Anonymous]OP we switched from a more local, coop pool for your exact reasons. The swim team and their families dominated it. I had grown up going to the pool, and it was never this bad. Moved back to the area and rejoined and the swim team families dominance was out of control! We couldn’t even use the toddler pool during swim team practice. The swim families would lay claim to all of the umbrellas and shaded areas w/ towels and stuff, even though a lot of them left between am and pm. practices. Their stuff remained. Theyd also take over the grilling are and all of the snack bar tables. Final straw was they started having pasta nights on Fridays before meets and closed the snack bar, eating area and pool deck unless you were a swim team member. The older swim team kids were also the lifeguards and would basically make up new rules to help their teammates. They started letting swim team members in the baby pool during the 15 minute adult swim every hour, and the kids would play the craziest games (tidal wave to try to get the water out, etc). Only big swim team kids were allowed in bc they said they needed to stay warmed up. It was ridiculous We joined a country club, and it’s been worth every penny. [/quote]
