COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. \u2013 USA Swimming, the national governing body (NGB) for the sport of swimming in the U.S., and Streamline Brands, a leading franchisor of swim school concepts, today announced a multi-year partnership focused on creating more swimming programs across the country and transitioning a greater number of athletes from learn to swim programs to recreational and competitive swimming.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are excited to partner with leaders such as Streamline Brands to find creative ways to attract more people to the sport of swimming,\u201d<\/span> USA Swimming Director of Partnership Marketing Jim Fox<\/strong> said. \u201cTheir unique ability to provide opportunities for both the beginning swimmer and the swim-enthusiast in the same facility compliments our grassroot priorities of extending swimming experiences and increasingly transitioning young swimmers learning to swim to more competitive programs.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Beginning January 2019, Streamline Brands will become the Official Swim School Provider of USA Swimming. The partnership includes rights to official marks, branding, marketing and promotional opportunities, as well as membership incentive programs. Additionally, advertising will feature on U.S. Masters-owned channels.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are honored to be the Official Swim School Provider of USA Swimming,\u201d said Matt Lane<\/strong>, CEO of Streamline Brands. \u201cWe believe learning to swim is truly a life skill. Daily we are reminded of the value swimming brings as we watch kids develop water safety skills, self-confidence and potentially a passion for a life-long sport. Our curriculum is designed to teach all skill levels of swimmers ranging from the fundamentals of water safety to elite competitive instruction. We are extremely passionate about swimming and are thrilled to introduce more kids to the life-long sport of swimming through this partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n
Streamline Brands, based in Denver, Colorado, is the industry\u2019s largest franchisor of swim schools with three brands in the family: SafeSplash Swim School, SwimLabs Swim School and Swimtastic Swim School, with over 178 swim schools in their network. In 2016, Streamline Brands acquired SwimLabs, a brand renowned for providing competitive level swim instruction using video analysis coupled with the ability to compare any swimmer\u2019s stroke to elite swimmers using video captured in the SwimLabs Champions Library, which includes Olympic gold medalists such as Missy Franklin<\/strong>, Jason Lezak<\/strong>, Kelsi Worrell Dahlia<\/strong> and Ryan Lochte<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
Franchisees Amy Albiero<\/strong>, a multiple NCAA national swimming champion, and Arthur Albiero<\/strong>, Head Swimming and Diving Coach at the University of Louisville and USA Swimming National Team coach, recently opened a SafeSplash + SwimLabs Swim School in Louisville, Kentucky. The facility offers both the industry leading learn-to-swim curriculum and instructor match offered by SafeSplash Swim School and the cutting-edge advanced training technology provided by SwimLabs Swim School.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are thrilled by the reaction we have received to our state-of-the-art swim school from both competitive swimmers and families in our community. My family and I have a passion and love for the life-long sport for swimming,\u201d said Arthur Albiero. \u201cOur SafeSplash + SwimLabs Swim Schools will allow us to continue to make a positive impact in Louisville in a fun and different way. This partnership with USA Swimming affirms our decision to be part of the Streamline Brands family. We are taking kids from learning Bubbles to Butterfly\u00ae and supporting Olympic dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jon Urbanchek<\/strong>, legendary coach and Technical Advisor to the USA Swimming National Team, recently visited the latest SafeSplash + SwimLabs Swim School concept and stated, \u201cWow, this is where Olympic dreams are made!\u201d<\/p>\n
