On 23/June 2019 LFSC and USA Swimming were required to comply with the New Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policy ("MAAPP") set forth by the US Center for Safe Sport. You can read the new policy here.
ALL LFSC athletes 18 years and Older are NOW required to take Athlete Protection Training. The Athlete Protection Training can be found here.
