Sometimes the competition extends beyond the pool, and in this case our staff and volunteers worked relentlessly to ensure we score highest in transparency and excellence in operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, membership accounted for 62% of the USA Swimming revenue, with 15% coming from the USOPC, 13% from partnership marketing and 10% from other factors.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, 25% of that money is invested in the national team, 21% for insurance, technology and business operations, 16% for event operations, 16% for sport development, 16% for partnerships, marketing and communication and 6% for international development.<\/p>\n<p>After what <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/category\/usa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USA<\/a> Swimming called \u201cextreme cost-cutting measures\u201d because of the pandemic, the governing body reported a $1.8 million surplus for the five-year period between 2017 and 20121.

Those numbers include record amounts in learn-to-swim grants, Community Impact grants, and Donor Athlete Partnership Program funding.<\/p>\n<p>USA Swimming and the Foundation introduced the Community Impact Grant program during the pandemic with the goal to increase competitive opportunities by funding clubs to create programs in new communities. Through these grants, we hope to grow the pipeline of champion athletes and to create more opportunities to broaden community access to USA Swimming. In 2022, the Foundation provided grant funding for 27 clubs, including clubs led by women or multicultural coaches, clubs partnering with HBCUs, and clubs creating programming within a community that has an existing pool but limited or no competitive programming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>USA Swimming and President and CEO Tim Hinchey released its annual State of the Sport report for 2022 on Wednesday. \u201cI am humbled by the resilience of our athletes, coaches,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3915,"featured_media":263249,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3,122077,7],"tags":[61840,2690],"class_list":["post-513243","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-americas","category-usa","tag-tim-hinchey","tag-usa-swimming"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\r\n<title>USA Swimming Releases 2022 State of the Sport Report<\/title>\r\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"USA Swimming Releases 2022 State of the Sport Report.
