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?
I worried about nakedness in the locker room for about 2 weeks — when I was 10 years old. After that, I hardly ever thought about it. In Canadian schools of that era, from grade 5 on, gym was compulsory, with naked showers to follow, and you just did it and got over it!
Coincidentally, I was just googling ocean beach temperatures in Vancouver and came across a notice that as of June 2011, topless bathing is legal on all Vancouver beaches.:banana:
