• Swimming

T.A.A.F. State Swimming qualification begins at the local level with the swim athlete being registered through their member city swim team, affiliate swim team or as an unattached athlete. All Athletes must be registered with TAAF prior to participating in any local, circuit or regional meets. Practice meets, depending on region, are available to the athlete prior to regional competition. The T.A.A.F. registered athlete must qualify through regional competition (the region in which they are registered). Once the athlete qualifies at region level, he or she advances to the T.A.A.F. State Swim Meet held at the T.A.A.F. Summer Games of Texas.

Athletes must participate in the Region they are assigned. In order to participate in another Region's Circuit Meets the Team or City will need permission from the regions Regional Director and or Regional Swim Commissioner via e-mail and then the State Office will need to be alerted via e-mail prior to the circuit meet registration deadline each week. Region Directors and or Regional Swim Commissioners have the right to refuse any teams or cities from participating in their circuit meets.

ALL Unattached Athletes and New Affiliate Memberships must be processed no later than 3 working days prior to Region deadline or three days prior to June 30 whichever comes first. Please check your region to view exact date.
