The Roanoke Valley Aquatic Association was offically
organized in 1964 when the RVAA prepared the present constitution and
by-laws under the direction and supervision of the late Ed Hughes.
During the same year, the AAU offically sanctioned the RVAA
The RVAA has grown from an organization
with only a few hundred swimmers in 1964 to approximately 1,695
swimmers in 2001. Following the summer swim season each year, the RVAA
holds a championship meet, involving all of the current year's
participating teams. At the conclusion of the championship meet, the
organization presents plaques and awards in each division for
appropriate finishes. The RVAA also maintains, updates yearly, and
publishes a record of all the fastest times in the individual age
groups events for the championship meet.
The mission of RVAA is to promote the sport
of swimming for participants of all ages and abilities throughout the
Roanoke Valley Region. All swimmers, parents, coaches, and volunteers
will be treated with the highest standards of courtesy and dignity in
an environment that fosters fun, personal growth, fair play, and good
sportsmanship. RVAA strives to ensure an equitable system of
competition among swimmers. Its member swim clubs, in promoting team
unity and competition, are charged with abiding by the letter and
spirit of the RVAA rules.
