Cougar Aquatics is set on promoting a proper educational environment for the sport of swimming. We require certain gear for athletes to purchase, and we also provide gear as well. The cost of purchasing your own equipment will be roughly $80.00 to $100.00. As long as your athlete treats their gear & our gear with care and respect - it should last them a very long time. Gear can be bought through our team store or on swimoutlet.com. Athletes may purchase any gear they want to have that they feel is beneficial or more comfortable. The links below simply shows suggestions and items that are popular with our club team.
