About The Makos
Our Mission

Our mission is to develop and promote aquatic sports for all ages and abilities, to encourage health and fitness and to produce athletes who are a credit to their sport and the community.

Our History

The North Suburban Aquatic Club (NSAC) carries on the long tradition of organized competitive swimming in the northern Twin City suburbs that first started in 1982, when club swimming was initiated in our area to provide quality year-round training for local academic teams.  Over the last score, the northern suburbs have produced high school and collegiate champions, and have sent swimmers to the highest levels of United States Competition.  In 2003, North Suburban Instructional Aquatics, Inc. (NSAC's parent organization) was officially formed as a 501c-3 organization to further the opportunities in competitive swimming to swimmers of all ages and abilities across the northern suburbs.  NSAC is the primary competitive swim club in the area it serves.  Run for the community and by the community, NSAC provides high quality programming while maintaining highly competitive rates that encourages anyone interested in competitve swimming to join the fun! 

Currently, NSAC swimmers represent dozens of communities across the North Suburbs of the Twin Cities.  During the high school seasons, our swimmers compete for a variety of high school teams, including Mounds View, Irondale, White Bear Lake, Centennial, Forest Lake, Roseville, St. Thomas Academy, Anoka, and Columbia Heights. 

 Our Coaches

The North Suburban Aquatic Club prides itself on having a staff consisting of knowledgable, experienced, professional coaches running our programs.  All of our coaches are trained and regularly tested in First Aid, CPR and Water Safety.  Additionally, all NSAC coaches participate in continuing education provided by The American Swim Coaches Association (ASCA) through home study courses and regional and national clinics.
