ASCA to Recognize 10 & Under National Rankings for Certification
ASCA Special Announcement:
ASCA has long valued the role of the Coaches of 10 & Under swimmers and their contribution to the development of our national age group program. We have taken the Top 10 rankings, long course and short course, from the most recent seasons of each, and established those times as ATHLETE ACHIEVEMENT TIMES for Coach Certification for coaches of 10 & Under swimmers.
The 2013-2014 season’s List of Times are here:
ASCA Age Group Coach Certification Under Performance Standards ‐ 2013‐2014
These lists can now be included with a coach’s overall performance list to accumulate credits towards his / her certification level.
Primary Coach
The coach must be the Primary Coach of the athlete.
Primary Coach is defined as a coach who plans and executes 90% of any athletes training in the 12 months prior to the achievement.
Proof of Time
Proof is available in the USA-Swimming “SWIMS” database online.
Send proof of performance with your request for Certification upgrade.
To Access:
| Level 3 Age Group Certification: | 1 National ranking |
| Level 4 Age Group Certification: | 20+ National rankings |
| Level 5 Age Group Certification: | 40+ National rankings + three #1’s |
This ADDS BACK the 10 & Under rankings to the “mix.”
An age group designation can be any of 10 & Under, 11-12, 13-14, 15-16, 17-18 times from the SWIMS database.
(Note: USA Swimming still does not provide certificates for ten and under athletes, but the data on rankings still exist.)
Congratulations to all of our 10 & Under Coaches. Keep up the great work!
– John Leonard, ASCA Executive Director
