We just got done with today's practice and I have to say that we had more late swimmers today than we have had so far this year! I'm curious to see what everyone's policy (if any) you or your team have with showing up on time? I definitely don't want to be a harda$$, but I want people to show up on time as well!
Look forward to the comments!

Perhaps the answer in this question goes back to the belief of whether swimming is an individual or team sport.
Yes, part of it is common courtesy if you're going to "upset" a lane of swimmers who are in the middle of their rhythm. But we're adults and should be able to adapt to changes when necessary.
Our Masters workout is on a white board placed on deck at all times, so anyone can use it at any time. This fosters an atmosphere that is much more welcoming than being greeted by a locked gate.
