Partnering with USA Swimming, the U.S. State Department brought 13 athletes—12 youth and one coach—to the U.S. for a swimming-focused program from June 26 to July 9. During the first half of their visit, participants had an opportunity to attend the 2012 USA Olympics Swimming Trials in Omaha, Nebraska. The delegation also participated in a Special Olympics session and trained with their American counterparts. The final part of the program took place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where the delegation took part in a series of intensive swimming clinics, strength and conditioning trainings, and educational summer camp programs.
