Good Afternoon Parents and Swimmers,
USA Swimming has a program called “SAFE SPORT”. USA Swimming is committed to safeguarding all of its members with the welfare of its athlete members as top priority. Safe Sport is USA Swimming’s comprehensive abuse prevention program and provides tools for swim clubs to educate their members and intervene in risky situations.
The York YMCA Aquatic Club fully endorses and supports USA Swimming’s Safe Sport and Safety programs.
If you complete this training it can assist the club in becoming Safe Sport Recognized by USA Swimming, and may help us qualify for grants available due to COVID.
USA Swimming will track the number of people that take the quick online training program from our team and we will be awarded points based on our completion rate. The more parents and swimmers that participate, the better.
PLEASE HELP OUR TEAM BY TAKING A FEW MINUTES TO COMPLETE A TRAINING EXERCISE THAT WILL HELP TO PROTECT OUR SWIMMERS AND OUR MEMBERSHIP!
