USA Swimming issued a Task Force recommendation report allowing the sale of alcohol at pools where professional level swim meets take place and where those venues have an alcohol serving license.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The recommendation, which needs to go to USA Swimming\u2019s House of Delegates, does not apply to Age Group, State, Sectional, Zone, Jr. National, or Futures level meets.\u00a0Exceptions to this provision include senior, national-level events or with the approval of USA Swimming staff.<\/p>\n

Swimming World reached out to\u00a0Matt Farrell<\/strong>, Chief Marketing Officer for USA Swimming to better understand the motivation behind the recommendations<\/p>\n

Farrell said the topic originated in two primary ways:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. A desire to treat top-level events in a consistent way with other professional sports. If we want to treat the events and athletes like pros, then our events have the opportunity be closer to a pro sports experience. This was resoundingly supported yesterday with a group of 10-12 National Team athletes in Colorado Springs when we had a meeting on this and other topics.<\/li>\n
  2. Also, this topic actually originated by requests from the local level. There were teams across the country that had family connections with a local brewery or vineyard. They wanted to know if they could support their local swim team in some way.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u201cSo, the USA Swimming-board appointed task force include representation from coaches, officials, club leaders and a National Team athlete. It was extremely thorough and responsible in looking at the issue from all angles, including research on other Olympic sports to come up with a policy that adapted to team and major event needs and stay responsible within the swimming community culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cSome were left with the impression this was about grassroots, youth events and that just isn\u2019t the case. This is about the highest-level of events as well as making reasonable accommodations for adult-focused receptions or functions locally,\u201d said Farrell.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    The recommendation<\/a> also resolves the issue of whether clubs can have alcohol at events that are not directly related to swimming competitions, by allowing alcohol at adult fundraising activities.\u00a0\u00a0The recommendations allow for alcohol to be donated or sold to clubs who host events away from competitions.\u00a0\u00a0These companies can now become sponsors of a club, but the clubs cannot incorporate an alcohol related company into the name of the club as that would imply an endorsement of the youth activity.<\/p>\n

    These recommendations allow for the sport of swimming to grow more in line with other professional sports and allow parents and boosters to hold social events that do not restrict adult rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
