Safe Sport Information

The Riviera Swim Team follows the practices and policies of USA Swimming’s Safe Sport Initiative, as well the US Center for Safe Sport. The Riviera Swim Team has created Safe Sport policies to encourage athletes, parents, and coaches to work together to keep everyone safe while participating in the sport they love. For these policies to be effective, everyone must participate. If you see something, say something.
