Virtual Team Meeting:
USA Swimming member clubs are seeking unique opportunities to remain connected with athletes and parents.
One unique way to remain connected and complete the training component of Safe Sport Club Recognition is to
host a virtual training.
1. Schedule a virtual meeting for either parents or athletes to attend.
2. Visit https://www.usaswimming.org/; Click on “Login/Register” to log in to your account.
o Next click on “Education” in the blue toolbar. 
o Select Course Catalog.
o Select “Safe Sport Courses.”
o Select “SSRP.”
 For a parent training, select Parent’s Guide to Misconduct in Sport.
 For an athlete training, select Safe Sport for Youth Athletes (13-17). 
 For young athlete training, select SafeSport for Kids (5-12).

3. Conduct a virtual meeting with athletes or parents by sharing your screen and viewing the training
course together. When you share your screen, ensure that you also share the sound from your device
so those watching can hear the training audio.  


4. Record attendance. A simple way to do this is to have participants send their name to the training host
using a chat function.


5. Send the attendance record to [email protected]. USA Swimming staff will manually update the
Club application. (athletes will not receive a certificate and it will not be recorded on their individual
accounts.) 


Reminder: A virtual meeting with minor athletes is an electronic communication and the Minor Athlete Abuse
Prevention Policy requirements apply:
 If you are meeting with only one athlete, that athlete’s guardian/parent must also be included.
 If you are meeting with multiple athletes, another adult must also be included.
 The meeting must be held between the hours of 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Safe Sport at Events Meet 360 is designed for meet hosts, meet directors, meet referees and meet organizers. This
resource is "Safe Sport in a Box" and is intended to assist in creating a safe environment for all who attend, and will aid in
 Implementing preventative Safe Sport measures before, during, and after a meet
 Addressing Safe Sport concern
 Complying with the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policy
 Information, announcer scripts, and signs included to copy and use for locker rooms, deck, heat sheets,
scoreboard.
