MEET GEAR

SWAT TEAM SUITS

Team suits may be purchased from the SWAT/A3 team store. Link https://www.a3performance.com/collections/southwest-aquatic-team



Swimmers who have registered for the full fall/winter season should order a team suit directly from A3 at no cost. Team suits will be delivered in late September.

CHAMPIONSHIP MEET SUITS

Athletes and parents should ALWAYS consult with their lead coach before purchasing and wearing a technical racing (kneeskin) suit. A3 Performance offers discounts on championship suits. Check with A3 before you purchase your next championship suit!



Also, remember there are rules for 12 and under swimmers and technical racing suits. CLICK HERE for more information.

SWAT MEET CAPS (SILICON AND LATEX)

The standard red SWAT meet cap (available in both latex and silicon) can be purchased through the team gear coordinator at any time. Latex caps are $5 and silicon caps are $10.

PERSONALIZED SILICON MEET CAPS 

Personalized caps are typically only ordered in September (Fall Session) and April (Spring Session). Details will be emailed to the membership when ordering becomes available.


A link for fall personalized cap orders will be available on the SWAT A3 page: (https://www.a3performance.com/collections/southwest-aquatic-team)

Cap Orders will close on Thursday 9/4 at 11:59 PM.

SWAT SILICON PRACTICE CAPS

SWAT silicon practice caps are available in 4 colors (purple, pink, lime green, or navy blue). They are only to be worn at practice, not at meets. The cost of each cap has increased to $10 due to increased production costs.

SPIRIT WEAR

  • A complete list of team-logoed shirts, shorts, pants, jackets, parkas, and training equipment is available from the SWAT A3 Team Store.


  • We also offer supplemental spirit wear each fall and spring. The Fall 2025 Spirit Wear Store will open soon. Stay tuned!

 

  • If you are looking for something particular or have suggestions for items to have in the spirit store, please contact the Team Gear coordinator.
