Over the past year, collegiate institutions have cut or suspended over 300 programs due to Athletic Departments’ inability to financially and/or administratively support their swim teams.  These cuts represent the significant loss of opportunity for thousands of student athletes who consistently achieve the highest levels of academia and athletics throughout their school as well as the entire United States.

Over the past several months a few organizations have emerged to support the well-being of college swimming, and one of the newest efforts originates from Swim Blogs United.

TheSwimmersCircle.com founder and co-owner, Andy Scherer and Braden Keith, have collaborated with several swimming blogs to form Swim Blogs United (SBU).  Aimed to be one of the biggest alliances of swimming websites, SBU will focus on supporting collegiate level swimming from a journalistic and blogging front.

To find out more information about how to support the efforts of Swim Blogs United and make a true difference in the world of collegiate swimming, please visit http://theswimmerscircle.com/swimblogsunited or contact Andy Scherer at swimmerscircle@hotmail.com.
