Oceania Aquatics, [2] formerly known as Oceania Swimming Association, [3] is the continental governing body recognised by World Aquatics, for the national governing bodies of swimming, open water swimming, diving, water polo, synchronised swimming and masters swimming in Oceania.

The body was established in January 1991 during the 1991 World Aquatics Championships in Perth, Australia. At the OSA Congress held in June 2008, Dennis Miller of Fiji was elected President of the organization. [4] The body will next meet during the 2009 World Championships in Rome, Italy.

The OSA also tracks and maintains the Oceania Records.

Member Federations

There are currently 14 member federations of the Oceania Swimming Association (listed here with their FINA abbreviation following their country name): [5]

Note:   Tonga (TGA) and   Vanuatu (VAN) should also be OSA members, based on geographic location; however, as of June 2016, they are not listed member on the OSA's member roster. [5] In July 2009, an OSA President report cited the Vanuatu's non-member status is due to its new member status with FINA (i.e. the OSA may not have met yet since Vanuatu became a FINA member). [6] As Tonga became a member in January 2010, it is presumed too recently approved for inclusion.
