USA Swimming Registration and Insurance
In order to help protect its members, USA Swimming provides Secondary Medical Insurance coverage to all of its registered members. Everyone on the pool deck or in the pool at a meet (with the exception of meet workers) or at practice must be registered with United States Swimming in order for the insurance to apply. This includes all athletes, all coaches including assistants, and all officials , including trainees. The presence of unregistered persons on the pool deck (with the exception of workers at a meet) will void the insurance coverage. For more information about the insurance click here.
All clubs, coaches, officials and swimmers must be registered with USA Swimming in order to participate in any USA Swimming event. Additionally, every club must have a registered safety coordinator and every swim meet must have a registered Safety Director and Meet Director. All clubs, coaches and officials must meet stringent requirements in order to be registered. |
