Former Australian Coach Scott Volkers Banned From Rio Games

Editorial Coverage Sponsored By Speedo

Former Australian coach Scott Volkers has been banned from attending the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, according to news from Inside the games.

Volkers is currently coaching in Brazil for the Minas Tennis Club. Eight swimmers from that club have qualified for their home Games. Volkers arrived in Brazil in 2011, after an ordeal with sexual abuse allegations in Australia.

He was first accused of abusing three of his female athletes in the 1980s. In 2002, Volkers was arrested “on suspicion of indecently dealing with a child under the age of 16.” While the charges were dropped, he was no longer allowed to coach swimmers under age 16.
