Swimsuits
Practice Suits – Girls may wear any brand competitive one-piece suit. Boys may wear any brand jammers or speedo briefs. Any cap may be worn, but we recommend saving your current team cap for meets, because caps do break easily.
Meet Suits – Girls may wear the team suit, or a competitive one-pieces suit in all black, or black with green detail. Boys may wear the team suit or jammers or speedo brief in all black, or black with green detail. We require wearing a team swim cap at meets, as it helps identify our swimmers.

Team suits can be found on on-line at the Elsmore Swim Shop. See below for details. Competitive suits are not the same a suits that you wear to the pool for fun. If you are not sure if your suit is a competitive suit or what size suit to order, please reach out to the coaches.
