Message from Scottish Swimming

Ali Smith Membership Secretary

To All Scottish Swimming Members,

Shared on behalf of Scottish Swimming.

You may have seen that there is a lot in the press about transgender athletes competing in sport. Scottish Swimming are developing guidance and a policy around the inclusion of transgender and non-binary athletes and volunteers in our sports, at the heart of which is a commitment for ‘fairness in competition.’

As part of the development of such guidance, Scottish Swimming are going out to consultation across our membership and there will be various opportunities for everyone to contribute to the discussions.

One of the consultation sessions is exclusively aimed at transgender and non-binary members (both swimmers (all sports) and non swimmers).

This consultation will take place on 30th May at 6.30pm virtually.

If you are interested in taking part in this consultation we would love you to register your interest here.

 

Kind regards
