About Us

Pusch Ridge Swim Team is one of Tucson’s oldest and largest family-run swim teams. In addition to being very successful competitively, we have a long-standing reputation as an affordable, positive, energetic and welcoming team that provides much more to our families than mere swim instruction. Our team building and social programming has made the Pusch Ridge Swim Team the largest swim team in Tucson. Last year we registered almost 200 kids, from 127 families, representing 33 different schools!

 

Pusch Ridge Swim Team is a non-profit association comprised of members with a common interest in swimming and with a desire to foster national or international amateur sports competition. Our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing and fun environment, utilizing full family involvement, allowing each swimmer to achieve maximum growth as a competitive swimmer and as a person. Our purpose is to promote good sporting conduct, self-discipline, self-confidence and responsibility while developing strong swim skills. We will provide children with the opportunity to compete individually and as a team. Since we are a non-profit organization, the proceedings of the Team are governed by Bylaws. These are available upon request.

 
We belong to the Southern Arizona Aquatic Association (SAAA). There are 24 swim teams throughout the greater Tucson area that are governed by the SAAA.
 

The SAAA is divided into five leagues.  Each league has its own Championship at the end of the season.  Pusch Ridge competes as part of the San Pedro League.  We have at least one meet during the season against each of the teams in our league (although we swim teams outside our league, as well).  The following teams comprise the San Pedro League: 

 

Pusch Ridge

Orcas at BLAST

El Dorado Aquatics

Sabino Vista Hills

Tucson Jewish Community Center

Ventana Canyon
