The Triad Amateur Swimming Association (TASA) was established in 2022 with the single premise of offering financial support to individuals who cannot afford the cost of swim lessons for their children.   Soon after, we came to fully understand that there are many facets that go into the creation and implementation of a swim lesson.  That being the case, we support all aspects of our aquatic community through:

• Fundraising through events and donors to cover the cost of TASA sponsored swim lessons for qualifying children of low income and underprivileged families. 

​

• Sponsoring of dues associated with competitive swimming, lifeguard certifications, and swim instructor licensing. 

​

• Financially supporting our TASA partner facilities in the form of rent and / or an official written agreement between TASA and the approved partner. ​

​

Learning to swim is not only a valuable athletic skill — it nurtures physical health, increases confidence, and opens the door to lifelong opportunities. TASA is committed to addressing these needs and providing mentorship to children and families who might otherwise be excluded from aquatic programs.​

​

One of the best ways to care for your child's physical, mental, and social health is through swim lessons. TASA has been established to address these needs and provide mentorship to children in need.​

Many public pools and beaches across the country are experiencing a shortage of trained lifeguards, creating both a community safety challenge and job opportunities for young people. TASA supports training that prepares youth for potential summer and year-round employment in lifeguarding and water safety roles.  ​

Together, we are building a safer, stronger community — one swimmer at a time.
