Thank you for your interest in our swim team!

Raleigh Swimming Association (RSA) provides affordable, exceptional aquatic programming tailored to the individual.  RSA’s flagship program, the swim team, was founded in 1960.  Our technique-based program is designed to promote stroke efficiency and speed.  In addition, we employ the highest caliber coaching staff committed to providing a safe, healthy, positive environment that fosters good sportsmanship, teamwork, and leadership.

At RSA, we teach and develop the four competitive strokes and emphasize the importance of streamlining, kicking, body position and body awareness.  RSA’s program is designed to give each athlete the opportunity to excel, the confidence to succeed and the chance to swim in college.

At RSA, we are more than just a swim team.  Our organization is a place where swimming is the medium through which swimmers are molded, friendships are fostered, character is nurtured and dreams come true.  Join us in our vision.
