Swim Gear

Equipment

For swim meet gear needs, please visit our online team store at Swim Outlet. Though we recommend our team styled suit, it is not strictly enforced.

  1. Two Suits – 1 for practice and 1 for meets (at a minimum)

    1. Practice suit – any competitive suit, but no rec suits, boardshorts etc. Many swimmers have a few suits for practice although 1 will be fine for most swimmers. For boys/men, choose jammers or brief style suit. For girls/women, one-piece competition suit. For 9-18 age group, drag suit optional. Please ask a coach if they recommend a drag suit for your swimmer.

    2. Team suit (for Meets) – Locally, Champion Pool supplies our competition (meet) suits and they have our team-approved styles on file. To order, visit Champion's CTAP online store, visit in-person, or contact Champion Pool. Suits may be purchased from any retailer, but the suit needs to be the team style and color.

  2. Competitive goggles. Avoid store brand goggles (labeled “competitive”; brands to look for: Speedo, Tyr)

  3. Swim Caps are a must. (1) CT cap is provided to each registered swimmer.

  4. Towel, sunscreen, water bottle.

  5. Age 9-18 - short-blade fin.

  6. Age 9-18 - pull buoy.

  7. Closed-toed shoes for dryland activities such as warm-ups.

  8. Along with a swim cap, each swimmer will receive a team t-shirt, however extra team gear is available to outfit the family (or replace lost shirts). 

 

TIP: write your swimmers' name on their swim gear at the beginning of the season!
