Sponsorship
Partner with the Riverside Aquettes
RAQ operates several programs: a competitive artistic (synchronized) swim team, a recreational swim team, private lessons, and a Master’s program for senior artistic swimmers.
Our artistic swimming program has a national championship, three Olympic-level alumni, and a tradition of producing athletes who go on to excel in college, careers, and life.

Your impact in action
Your support matters more than ever
We are a small, parent-run club. There is no marketing budget and no head office — sponsorship goes straight to the things that put swimmers in the pool. We serve Riverside and the surrounding cities.
Like many youth organizations, we are growing — adding new members, expanding our coaching staff, and partnering with the Riverside Sports Commission to host regional and national events at the Riverside Aquatic Complex. Your sponsorship directly fuels that momentum.
Pool time
Lane rental at Shamel Park and Sippy Woodhead — our single biggest cost.
Meet entry and travel
Local, state and out-of-state competitions, plus our own Orange Blossom Invitational.
Equipment
Caps, suits, and the training gear artistic swimming needs.
Scholarships
So a family’s budget never decides whether a kid gets to swim.
