Attendance at practice and meets are critical components of swimmer improvement and success and are considered during coach recommendations for the following season. For each practice group, there are attendance minimums and recommendations that are included in the group descriptions below.
- Attendance minimums for practices and swim meets exist to ensure that Maverick Swim Club has a membership that is able to minimally commit to swimming. Each year, we carry a waitlist of swimmers who would love to swim with us, so attendance minimums need to be met for a swimmer to receive a coach recommendation for the following season.
- Attendance recommendations for practices and swim meets are to help families understand realistic expectations for their child’s improvement and enjoyment of the sport. Swimming is a sport where consistency is a major component for improvement and swimmers who are steadily improving tend to enjoy the sport more. Younger athletes can be given opportunities to explore multiple interests. As children grow older, they are encouraged to set goals and discuss with their coach what level of commitment is needed to reach those goals. Swimmers are ultimately responsible for their goals which are then supported by their family and our coaching staff.
How do you check a swimmer’s attendance?
Coaches take attendance using the OnDeck/SportsEngine app. Login to the app using the same login for the Maverick website. Attendance is on the login page of the app. Unfortunately, attendance is not visible from the website. If you need assistance, reach out to the lead coach or registrar.
