Minor Athlete Abuse Protection Policy

In an effort to better protect our athletes U.S. Center for SafeSport has required USA Swimming to implement the following, Minor Athlete Abuse Protection Policy (MAAPP). The enhanced requirements are meant to educate adults and safeguard our athletes. This is a requirement of USA Swimming and our club in its entirety must comply. For Applicable Adults (any adult having contact with an athlete or adult athlete), you must read and sign the MAAPP. This policy affects all volunteers at a swim meet and anyone else who may have contact with an athlete.

**NOTE**: All adult athlete members (athletes 18&O) will now be required to complete Athlete Protection Training or their memberships will become invalid. All adult members - athlete and non-athlete - will be required to complete the training annually. 

MAAPP contains five sections: one-on-one interactions, travel, social media and electronic communications, locker rooms and changing areas and massage, rubdowns and athletic training modalities. Please read below for the Policy and other education materials.
