Safe Sport
Safe Sport is USA Swimming’s (USAS) program to eliminate sexual abuse, bullying, and misconduct in our sport.
We are committed to providing a safe, healthy, and positive environment here on this team. Our swim team was the first team in Maine, and one of the first 70 in the nation (out of more than 5,000 clubs), to be a Safe Sport Recognized Club.
