2014 CLUB EXCELLENCE PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT

2014 Club Excellence Program Announcement

 

The 2,900 member clubs of USA Swimming are the foundation of USA Swimming’s continuing international success. We are proud to honor the dedication and commitment of these clubs as we introduce the 13th year of the USA Swimming Club Excellence Program. 

The purpose of this letter is to formally announce the 2014 program and provide directions to all clubs regarding the application process. For complete program information and the link to begin the application, please visit the Club Excellence page on the USA Swimming website. 

In order to apply for the 2014 program, clubs must:
1. Complete the online application form available on the USA Swimming website. 
2. Submit the performance scoring using the Online Meet Entry (OME) system on the USA Swimming website. Instructions for using OME are included in this packet. 
3. Submit both components - the online application and the performance scoring - by the Oct 18, 2013 deadline.

Following is the complete timeline for the 2014 program:

All clubs applying for the 2014 Club Excellence program must successfully complete at least Level 1 of the Club Recognition Program.

As the entity that directly delivers services to athletes, swim clubs are vital to the ongoing growth and success of the sport. The Club Excellence program is one way in which USA Swimming recognizes our highest performing clubs and rewards them for a job well done.
