Swim Team Gear and Equipment

  • In addition to a swimsuit, towel, and goggles, a water bottle is a must for maintaining hydration!
  • For hair longer than chin length, a swim cap is highly recommended for visibility and speed.
  • Fins will be used in practice (to help build strength, flexibility, and speed) and may be purchased at the Front Desk.
  • For outdoor swim teams, fins and a center-mounted swimmer's snorkel are required. Center-mounted swimmer's snorkels help swimmers develop mouth breathing rather than nose breathing, improve body position, and allow swimmers to focus on other aspects of swimming by reducing their need for air.
