General Information
There is so much to learn in the sport of swimming. In fact, not unlike other sports, swimming has its own lingo. You can find a glossary of terms in the resource button. Rule One-- don't feel overwhelmed by the sport. There are a few basics, such as training gear which can all be found in the Group & Schedule Tab.
To purchase Swim gear go to Conejoswimworks.com on the left side scroll to find Paseo Aquatics store
We generally carry Paseo Aquatics swim caps in stock. Black and White caps are available for all group levels. Colored caps denote achieved times (i.e. Gold Caps = Championship Cuts; Blue Caps = Far Western Cuts, Black on Black- Futures, Black on Black with Gold- Junior Nationals and above), 2-3 times a year we will take orders for customized caps which have your names on the sides.
Team warm-ups are available through Swimworks. Arena is Paseo Aquatics sponsorship. Warm up orders are placed twice per year. Conejo Swimworks will size the athletes to confirm proper fit and customization.
