Parent’s Initials / 2007West Austin Flyers Parent Code of Conduct_____ / Welcome to West Austin Athletic Club and the Flyers summer league swim team. We are pleased you have chosen our program. This program attracts between 100-200 swimmers each summer ranging in age from 4-17. The coaching staff strives to help every child learn about swimming in a fun and structured environment. To accomplish this goal, we ask parents to stay clear of the deck during practices so the coaches can give their full attention to the swimmers. We welcome questions, comments, and concerns, but please hold these until after practice. If the coach is still coaching other children when your practice ends, please fell free to call Coach Trey at the Club 263-4282 outside practice hours.
_____ / Flyers is a member of the Austin Hills Swim League which is a parent run and supported league. In order to run a swim meet, participation is required from ALL parents! In addition to paying a registration fee for your child/children to swim, parents are required to volunteer for a specific job in EVERY MEET that your child participates. Should you choose not to volunteer, the Club offers you the opportunity to pay a one-time fee to hire additional staff to cover those positions.
_____ / If you are scheduled to work at a particular meet and you cannot attend, you must find a replacement to take over your duties BEFORE THE DAY OF THE SWIM MEET. It is difficult for coaches to recruit last minute volunteers while preparing young swimmers for their races. You will also need to work another meet to make up the one you missed.
_____ / We require swimmers to participate in at least FOUR out of the SIX swim meets. Competition in meets helps the coaches evaluate each athlete’s performance throughout the season. We can look at each child at a swim meet and see areas where they need improvement and can help them achieve their individual goals for the summer season. Also, the coaches can give positive reinforcement when your child show’s improvement weekly at the meets. This serves to inspire young swimmers.
_____ / The coaches work diligently to make Flyers Swim Team a positive experience for each child. The team stresses personal improvement and we pride ourselves on good sportsmanship. Please remember this at practices and at meets. We encourage cheering for Flyers at swim meets but require swimmers and parents to refrain from saying negative statements about any swimmer, coach, volunteer, or parent during a meet. Please keep in mind the league encompasses a range of children of varying swim abilities. If any concern arises at a meet please see Coach Trey or one of the Flyers Parent League Representatives (Ashlesha Hattangadi, Trey Prinz, or Teresa Glomb).
_____ / Your signature below states that you are agreeing to the terms outlined above. Your child/children can not be a member of the Flyers Swim Team without this signed agreement. With your help and participation, the children and parents of the swim team will have an enjoyable and successful swim season.
