RECREATION Swim Team

Recreation TEAMs 2025-26

Our Recreation Swim Team program offers swimmers an opportunity to improve their technique and conditioning while learning the fundamental skills of competitive swimming and having fun with friends. Recreation Team swimmers have the option to compete and the flexibility to progress at their own pace. The Recreation Swim Team runs from September through June and culminates with our Summer Swim Team from June to August. We also offer swimming specific dryland-only options to compliment our in-water swim groups. This allows swimmers to customize their practice schedule and maximize their training benefit!

Bathing suit: Please see our Rec Swim Suit Policy. We recommend briefs for the boys and one-piece suits for the girls. Suits should be tight fitting to minimize drag resistance and cannot have decorative attachments that could pose a safety risk or distraction. Rashguards and shirts are not allowed as it makes swimming much more difficult and can pose a safety risk, however we will accommodate any religious or modesty requests, just ask one of our coaches for an exemption form. While not a requirement, you are welcome to purchase a team suit through our online store at SwimOutlet.com. 

NO Diapers or Underwear: We cannot allow diapers or underwear to be worn under bathing suits as it poses a contamination risk and the fabric can break down in the chlorinated water causing damage to mechanical equipment. 

Towel: Swimmers should bring their own towel as we do not provide them. 

Goggles: All swimmers should have their own goggles. Many germs spread through the eyes and while we allow the occasional borrowing from lost & found, swimmers at this level should have their own basic equipment. Click here to visit our online store at SwimOutlet.com or stop by our Front Office.

Swim Cap (required for long hair, optional for short hair): long hair getting in your face can pose a safety risk so anyone with shoulder-length or longer hair must wear one. We will provide all Summer Recreation Team swimmers with a WEST team cap on the first day of practice. 

Water Bottle: Athletes should regularly hydrate during practice. Bottles may be refilled from our filtered water fountain. 

DRYLAND-ONLY GROUPS:

Sneakers / Training Shoes: please wear closed toe athletic shoes. Crocs, slippers, sandals, boots are not acceptable. Shoes should be sized appropriately and not fall off during movement. 

Attire: Please wear lightweight, breathable and moisture wicking clothing. Avoid stiff, baggy or heavy fabrics. 

Hair-Tie (for long hair): Athletes with long hair must tie it back to avoid distractions and limit safety risks.

Water Bottle: Athletes should regularly hydrate during practice. Bottles may be refilled from our filtered water fountain.
