Vision:

To grow and nurture the grass-roots of swimming, to improve community health & well being, develop quality swimmers and first class competition experiences

History:

In 1890 the Auckland Swimming Club initiated the move to form the National Association (now called Swimming NZ) and later, when regions, rather than clubs, were to be affiliated directly to the national body, the ASA was formed in 1906.

What we do:
The Auckland Swimming Association (“ASA”) is responsible for the development and encouragement of competitive swimming, stroke development and learn to swim throughout the Auckland Isthmus in the area of Auckland City, Waitakere City, North Shore City and Rodney District as far as Warkworth.

 

 

 

• Twenty-One clubs affiliated to ASA.
• ASA provides leadership to many community groups in water safety.
• The swimming clubs have been providing the organised community programs to encourage swimming at all levels of involvement, based at public swimming pools.
• Clubs have used and continue to use the skills and commitment of the community to provide “learn to swim”, stroke development, fitness programmes as well as the development of swimmers to national and international competition levels.
• ASA continues to produce the ‘Top Clubs’ through all ages and ‘Top Region’ throughout New Zealand.
• A team of committed coaches, parents, technical officials and staff who strive towards achieving the objectives and goals that makes Auckland the largest and most successful region out of the 16 regions within New Zealand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ASA takes pride in our achievements and successes and value the support given by sponsorships and funding agencies.
 

 

The fitness and health gained through swimming also has considerable side benefits in most other sports, especially Surf Lifesaving and Water Polo.
