COACHING CONNECTION

Featured This Month
Letter from Managing Director of Sport Development Joel Shinofield
Earlier this week, we faced the difficult decision to cancel north of 185 meets over the next several weeks. Just as every meet is important, every interaction you have with your athletes has meaning, and we know many of you feel cut off from what you do best: inspire, teach, motivate, challenge, and mentor your athletes.    
Information about Covered Activities and Remote Coverage for Practice
Many of you have had questions about insurance and providing online instruction to your athletes. Below you will find information that answers some basic questions about insurance coverage. Additionally, we would like to offer some practical advice for those of you trying to maintain your connection with your athletes. 
Extensions for Coach Certification Requirements
As a result of the closures of many facilities due to COVID-19, coaches may find it difficult to renew some certifications. The following steps are being taken to assist with this issue for coaches whose Lifeguard Training, In-Water Safety Training or CPR/AED certifications expire between March 1 and June 30, 2020.
Board Governed Club Resources During the Coronavirus Pandemic
As a part of USA Swimming’s commitment to building swim clubs, we are providing resources to help board governed clubs become even more effective in their roles, through our organizational membership with BoardSource.
GoSwim.tv COVID-19 Update
For nearly two decades, our mission at GoSwim.tv has been to help people of all ages and backgrounds to swim better and reach their full potential in the sport. In this challenging time of COVID-19, with pools closed, meets canceled, and swimmers stuck at home, we are determined to continue – and even expand – our mission. Because of our long-time commitment to virtual learning, we believe we are in a unique position to step up right now, to serve the swimmers and coaches of our shared community.
