USA Swimming has announced the 54 participants selected for its Women’s Coaches in Governance program.
The program combines eight virtual Zoom meetings with one in-person session. The in-person component is slated to take place during the USA Swimming Annual Summit in Denver, Colorado, from September 24-28, 2025. A full breakdown of program topics is available here.
According to USA Swimming, the program is focused on “identifying, educating, supporting and mentoring female coaches who wish to be more involved in organizational governance.”
Local Swimming Committees (LSCs) can nominate coaches, and these nominations receive priority for selection. Coaches may also nominate themselves to fill any remaining spots.
USA Swimming listed the following three criteria to be considered for selection:
USA Swimming women coach members in good standing, with a minimum of five years coaching experience. Less than one year of governance experience and interest in getting involved. LSC financial backing to support attendance at the 2025 USA Swimming Workshop.“We are excited to be in our third year of Women Coaches in Governance,” said co-founder of the program Mary Liston in USA Swimming’s press release. “We are here to show women they have options to have a voice, have a seat at the table, or position on a committee. It is our plan to show them a path to new friends and new connections for a productive future within USA Swimming.”
“This program is geared towards helping us all grow, lead, and celebrate in our sport,” Liston added. “We will honor our common grounds and explore areas for growth. These coaches should expect a positive, interactive experience where they can perfect new tools as they move forward in their careers. We are all in this together, and together we are better.”
