Overview: KCS encourages open, respectful, and constructive communication between families, swimmers, and coaches. Aggressive or abusive language is not permitted. All discussions should occur at agreed times and places — no unannounced deck visits or surprise conversations. Allow 24-hour cooldown after upsetting incidents.
