  • there is at least one person on the banned list that is competing and calling themselves a us master coach. To be absolutely supportive of banning these perpetrators from swimming for life I think that should include masters swimming. People need to know that if they abuse children there is no safe place any where ever again!!!!! I agree 100% with you here Lisa, but not everyone does... I was shocked to hear and read comments from swimmers stating masters swimmers are adults and can say no. And also, that their "crimes" called out in relation to the USA-Swimming's code of conduct are not applicable to masters swimming. Lets' have a look at our own USMS Coaches Code of Conduct. Or perhaps since we're all adults and "safe", we don't need one... Sheez.
