The Tampa Bay Spearfishing Club (TBSC) was formed in 2002 with the goal of promoting safe and competent spearfishing, while establishing a venue for spearfishermen to network with others who enjoy the sport. The TBSC is a charter member of the Florida Skin Diving Association and an active member of the dive community. Our members are highly involved in state and national fisheries management, and are active in promoting legislation that affects the dive and spearfishing community.
We pride ourselves in participating in and volunteering for multiple competitions and charitable events throughout the greater Tampa Bay area. Please check out our “Community” section for details our efforts and support.
The TBSC also organizes and hosts one of the worlds largest annual spearfishing tournaments, the Tampa Bay Spearfishing Challenge. This family friendly tournament is held every Spring and focuses on fun, camaraderie, and our passion for the sport with proceeds going to support marine and local charities, causes, and organizations.
The Florida Skin Divers Association (FSDA) is a volunteer, non-profit coalition of Dive Clubs and individuals bound together by our common interest in sport, skin and scuba diving. The FSDA is the oldest and largest independent organization of divers in the state of Florida. It is governed by an unpaid board of directors who are active in the diving community. The board works hard to promote diving and organize membership to protect their diving rights.
The FSDA would like to thank all of its past and present Presidents, Officers Directors and members for the following achievements:
- Influencing dive related regulation/ legislation.
- Promoting diving safety through continued education on equipment use and maintenance, and diving techniques and safety procedures.
- Supporting and promoting the interests and activities of specialty diving groups.
- Supporting the non-destructive use and enjoyment of diving resources by all specialty groups through the encouragement of conservation.
Some specific FSDA achievements include:
- For over 50 years, organizing the Southern Open Spearfishing/Photography & Videography State Championship, which has included entrants from around the globe.
- The pivotal involvement in the transport and placement of the Christ of the Abyss statue in John Penekamp State park.
- Instrumental in developing the now universal dive flag, and boating regulations relating to dive flags for the safety of divers.
- Hosting the US Nationals Freediving Tournament
