I'm a board member for our swim club.
Last nite there was mention of a complaint from a senior high school swimmer who was uncomfortable with using a locker room with the adult master swimmers. We practice at the same time a few days out of the week.
This became an bigger issue last nite because we have a desire to run USA swimming at the same time as a few masters sessions in the evening and our coach voiced concern about everyone using the locker room at the same time and kids being uncomfortable.
Does your club run practices at the same time?
Have you run into issues like this?
How did you handle/manage locker room time?

most older swimmers walk around in the buff care free while
most younger swimmers and some masters (who might have had prudish moms or modesty issues, just a theory)
wrap a towel around their waist when they put on their suits or take them off
Most of the adults I see doing a deck change are the ones who let their 8-year-old boys run around the ladies locker room. AAAAARRRRGHHH! (Maybe that one belongs in the swim rant thread.)
