The Foundation is devoted to promoting the sport of swimming and youth fitness in the Tucson area. We believe that physical fitness, athletics, and healthy competition are important components to personal development for youth. In particular, we believe the sport of swimming provides an exceptional sports experience for young people.
Swimming is fun.
It helps develop friendships and increase confidence. It helps kids learn to be responsible for themselves and to respect themselves and others. It helps develop such life skills as goal setting and attainment, time management, teamwork, cooperation, perseverance, self-discipline, responsibility, and handling defeat. Swim Tucson strives to develop human beings, not just athletes, and to create a positive peer culture that promotes positive values. Swim Tucson offers a variety of aquatics and swim team programs serving the east, north, and northwest parts of Tucson.
