Welcome to the Australian Swimmers’ Association

The ASA exists to represent and support Australia’s elite swimmers’ — past, present, and emerging. We are the independent voice of Athletes, working to strengthen your voice in the sport, support your journey both in and out of the pool, and elevate your experience as part of the swimming community.

We have recently refreshed our strategy to re-establish our engagement across the swimming community, with a renewed focus on connecting with current Dolphins, Alumni, partners, and friends of the ASA.

Our mission is clear: Deliver initiatives to Strengthen, Support and Elevate Athletes and our Alumni as genuine partners in the success of swimming in Australia.

With athlete-first leadership now firmly in place at Swimming Australia, we are encouraged by the recognition that swimmers are critical stakeholders in shaping the future of our sport. Together, we can build a stronger, more connected community.

We invite you to stay connected with us, engage and utilise our services to support you, and be part of the next chapter for Australian Swimmers’.
