Connected to the Community

Established experience across education, safety and sport.

PSA has been involved with the Vancouver School Board and BC high-school swimming and is an affiliate of the Lifesaving Society BC & Yukon Branch.

PSA developed and manages Pacific Lifesaving Club, BC’s largest and most productive lifesaving sport club of the past 40 years. That experience shows what is possible when capable coaching, a coherent pathway and reliable access to water come together.

Partnering with PSA gives pool owners a credible, effective way to use available space for an essential life skill while helping develop the next generation of community-minded aquatic leaders.

Help create the next place where a child learns to swim.

Even a limited, consistent block of suitable pool time can make a meaningful difference.
