Pursuant to Section 3.6 of the USOPC Bylaws, all directors’ terms begin on January 1 of applicable odd-numbered years and end on December 31 of applicable even-numbered years for a four-year term, except in the case of the At-Large Athlete seat currently occupied by John Naber, which had an initial two-year term to allow for staggering of the two recently-created At-Large Athlete seats.


Terms listed are linked to the board seat itself, not the occupant of such seat.
