STAR Board Approves MAAPP

STAR Puts Athletes First

***New 2025 MAAPP required to be implemented by all LSCs and Clubs byeginning January 1, 2025***

STAR Swim Team and USA Swimming’s top priority continues to be keeping our athletes safe. No form of abuse, including child sexual abuse, has a place in our sport. As a part of our continued commitment to safeguarding our athletes, USA Swimming has enacted enhancements to our Safe Sport policy requirements.

The Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policy (MAAPP) addresses one-on-one interactions, social media and electronic communications, travel: local and team, locker rooms and changing areas and massages, rubdowns and athletic training modalities. Every USA Swimming club, Zone and LSC is required to implement the MAAPP in full.

We want to make swimmers and families aware of our commitment to safety for all of our athletes. Please click HERE to access STAR’s MAAP policy.

We encourage all parents and swimmers to familiarize yourselves with the policy, expectations and available outlets to report abuse. 

Sincerely,

STAR Swim Team
