Tuna Swim Club Mission and Values

Mission Statement

The Tuna Swim Club strives to inspire and prepare our members to set, plan for, and achieve their highest goals in both swimming and their personal lives. We promote aquatic excellence while offering an unforgettable experience, all provided in a safe, healthy, and positive environment for our athletes.

Vision Statement
The Tuna's vision is to inspire and prepare our members to set, plan for, and achieve their highest goals in swimming and in life.

Core Objectives
As a member of USA Swimming, the Tuna Swim Club supports USA Swimming’s three core objectives:

Build the Base
We strive to recruit and retain athletes of all ages, with a focus on building a strong membership base that will thrive for years to come. We are interested in developing young athletes whose commitment to swimming and TUNA will continue to grow, as well as, nurturing the talents of athletes who are prepared to compete at the highest possible level.

Promote the Sport
We are dedicated to giving back to our community in a way that benefits those in our neighborhoods, promotes the sport of swimming, and generates interest in swimming among typically underrepresented populations in our sport. We are proud of our sport and the accomplishments of TUNA’s athletes; we want to generate enthusiasm for swimming in those around us. We are committed to involving our athletes in volunteerism, being responsible members of our community, and promoting a unified team approach to pursuit of goals both in and out of the pool.

Achieve Competitive Success
The Tuna Swim Club has been committed to its athletes for more than 50 years. In that time, the Tuna Swim Club has established itself as a competitive club, with many accolades at the state, regional, and national levels. We seek to further this tradition of competitive excellence by providing programs that meet the needs of our memberships. We are dedicated to providing programs that are designed for progressive development among swimmers, from those who are novice competitors to those who compete at the national level.

The Tuna Swim Club and USA Swimming encourage all members to participate in the local, regional and national efforts to ensure that these objectives are accomplished.
