The TSA Representative is the Hasentree swim team’s representative to the Tarheel Swim Association (TSA), which is the organization that organizes summer swim meets in Wake County.

All communication about meets, rules, and other issues run through the TSA Rep. The TSA Representative must be present at each of the summer swim meets or arrange for the TSA Representative-Elect to be present. At each home meet, the TSA Representative meets with all the meet officials and volunteers before the meet starts. Any issue that arises during a meet is handled by the TSA Representative, who makes sure that all rules are followed. At away meets, the TSA Representative is the point of contact for the other team and will resolve any issues by working with the opposing team’s TSA Representative.
