The Story of TuksSwimming
When the sports director handed Rocco Meiring the keys to a green pool with ducks in it, nobody could have predicted what would follow.
From this neglected facility, dedication forged excellence. A world-class swimming program emerged, dominating competitions at every level. TUKS quickly became South Africa’s swimming powerhouse, claiming consecutive victories in age-group and senior national championships as well as in university competitions.
TUKS quickly became a magnet for South Africa’s swimming talent. Athletes like Tatjana Smith (née Schoenmaker), Kaylene Corbett, Erin Gallagher, and Pieter Coetzee chose to develop their skills here.
Our TUKS swimmers have shown what is possible on the world stage.
From a duck pond to Olympic medals. This is TUKS.
