Swim Coach Banned for Life Over Affair with Teen

A swim coach was banned for life Thursday over sex charges involving a South Orange County teen.

USA Swimming banned former Mission Viejo Nadadores swim coach Daniel Ad'm Dusenbury from the sport after finding he violated their rules involving sexual conduct.

Dusenbury admitted to USA Swimming that he carried on a four-year sexual relationship with an Aliso Viejo girl starting in 2006, when she was 15 and he was 28, according to the Orange County Register. He was a Nadadores coach at the time, and the girl was his student on the Nadadores team while attending Aliso Niguel High.

Dusenbury is the latest swim coach from South County to be accused of inappropriate sexual advances toward minor students.

In 2011, USA Swimming banned coach Todd Sousa when he was charged with having sex with a 15-year-old student. The coach's company taught swimming from San Juan Capistrano to Lake Forest.

Last year, the Saddleback Valley Unified School District was sued for allegedly firing two water polo coaches in retaliation for sexual harassment claims they made against a third coach. That coach allegedly touched teen students' breasts while demonstrating illegal hand-check moves.

Dusenbury was found to be in violation of five USA Swimming rules of conduct.

USA Swimming is the national governing body of the sport of swimming.

The Orange County Superior Court website showed no legal charges against Dusenbury.
