How many o you know what is paid to your coach/coaches for the season ?
Do you pay into a required fund for the team or a monthly pay or how does the team do it?
how much do you think the coach should make for the time & effort of practices -meets - meetings required to run the team?
our masters group is only 10-15 swimmers with 5-7 participating in meets. as well as 2-3 being 15-16 yr olds with injuries and can't swim with the other groups
I coach the group, and do it because otherwise we wouldn't have a coach. instead of being on an hourly pay, I do it for the cost of swimming. so instead of paying $200/half a year I coach 5.5hrs a week för nearly 22 weeks. so in a sense I work for less than 50 cents an hr.
don't get me wrong I would love to pay for swimming and have someone else coaching the group, but we don't all live in a swimmers town.
