(Webinar) Purpose-Driven Aquatics Are Essential: Best Practices for a Safer Return to Water During COVID-19

The Aquatics Coalition is comprised of more than 30 water safety and competitive water sports organizations from learn-to-swim programs, health and rehabilitation groups, competitive aquatics organizations, and facility operators. The Coalition banded together with one aim: to advocate for a return to purpose-driven aquatics by developing tools and guidelines for a safer return to water. This webinar addresses the need for purpose driven aquatics and how to get back into the water as safe as possible during the ongoing pandemic.

In this webinar, we will help you understand:

• Why purpose-driven aquatics are essential;
• The impact that the lack of access to pools and instructional aquatics has on marginalized communities;
• The science behind why aquatics facilities and purpose-driven aquatic activities are at a lower risk for transmitting COVID-19; and
• How COVID-19 safety protocols at aquatics facilities are working to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
