Central Iowa Aquatics
 

Welcome to Central Iowa Aquatics (CIA)

CIA is a year-round registered USA Swimming club founded by Central Iowa families and swimmers to improve the level of competitive swimming locally. More than a Greater Des Moines swim team, CIA is committed to helping athletes of all ages and abilities reach exceptional competitive swimming potential. Our athletes are part of a professionally coached team that promotes achievement, physical fitness, and social development in a positive environment. The success of CIA at local, state, and national levels reflects the dedication of our swimmers, the commitment of our coaching staff, and the involvement of our parents, guardians, and volunteers.

Organization

Central Iowa Aquatics was founded in 1995 by a group of parent and guardian volunteers interested in improving competitive swimming in the Des Moines metro area. We are a private, not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization. The club is a member of Iowa Swimming Inc (IASI), which in turn is a member of USA Swimming (USA-S). A Board of Directors governs CIA and meetings are open to all members of CIA.
