Georgia Swimming Diversity Invitational

and

Georgia Swimming Diversity Camp

 

The Georgia Swimming Diversity Invitational is more than a swim meet—it’s a movement.

 

Open to all Georgia Swimming & USA Swimming members, this event provides young athletes a chance to compete, connect, and grow. By participating, you help us achieve three important goals:

 

1. Increase access to competitive swimming in underserved communities.

 

2. Raise awareness around diversity, equity, and inclusion.

 

3. Provide fundraising support for the Georgia Swimming Diversity Camp, which gives 12-15-year-olds from diverse cultural, ethnic, and economic backgrounds in-water training, classroom life-skills when swimming, and leadership development.

 

All profits from the Invitational go directly to funding the Diversity Camp. Every athlete, coach, and supporter who joins helps make that possible.

 

Diversity Invitational - March 7, 2026, at C. T. Martin Natatorium and Recreation Center

 

Diversity Camp - April 25, 2026, at Frances Meadows Aquatic Center

 

Let’s lift each other up—with every stroke.

IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR ALL COACHES!

 

Effective July 1, 2025, Georgia Swimming will begin enforcing fines for clubs that allow unregistered swimmers to compete in sanctioned meets. This policy aligns with USA Swimming Rule 302.3 – False Registration, which states:

 

"If a swimmer who is not properly registered with USA Swimming competes in a sanctioned competition, the host LSC may impose a fine of up to $100.00 per event against the individual, member coach, or member club submitting the entry."

 

To avoid these fines, clubs must:

  • Verify Registration: Ensure all swimmers are properly registered with USA Swimming before submitting meet entries. This can be done directly through each club’s SWIMS account or through other linked team management software.



  • Submit Files Early: Submit meet files to the registrar well in advance of the start date to allow coaches ample time to correct any errors and register any outstanding athletes.

Please send an image of your athlete's college commitment to [email protected] as well as their full name and club team they represent to be featured on the GA Swimming Instagram.
