The Unión Americana de Natation (UANA) along with the International Swimming Federation (FINA) is working on several developmental programs for athletes, coaches and technical officials especially those in the Caribbean region.
President of UANA Maureen Croes, the first female in the continent and the lone person from Aruba with the distinction of holding that position, says that they are working on further implementation of development programs to raise the level of aquatics in the region.
“Each national federation has the opportunity to request clinics and the facilitator is somebody that FINA assigns. It comes down to each federation making a choice as to what they want addressed. For example if Barbados right now is trying to work on developing the swimming programme, maybe they would request a clinic for coaching swimming.
