Our club currently does not ask people to pay a drop in fee if they want to come out and see if masters is a good fit for them.
Curious what would be fair ($10-$20 is my idea) and if you feel it is a good idea or not.
I suspect how much gets charged depends on how closely the masters team works with the facility it uses. When I swam with the Northwestern masters team (NASA), guests had to pay the facility's guest fee, which was something like $25. NASA was just a very low priority user of the facility. OTOH, I swam once with a masters team in Maui when we were there on vacation. I think I paid the coach $2 on the deck.
As you might imagine, we didn't get a lot of guest swimmers at the NASA practices.
